Congrats Dr. Laura!!!
If I were you I would definitely just go to Creighton, but I suppose I'm slightly biased.
I can tell you that one thing that really attracted me to Creighton was the feeling I felt when I was there interacting with students, faculty and administrators. It just felt like home and it felt comfortable. I think part of that was knowing that it's a Jesuit university. I went to a Jesuit school for undergad (Marquette) and despite not being catholic, I loved the mission of the school and the overall feel of the Jesuit schools. There's just something about the school and the campus that I really enjoy. Classes are tough but rewarding, teachers are usually right in line with the mission of the school and truly value the commitment of the school to better the community, and a lot of the students really buy into the ideals of the university. The day I visited Marquette as a senior in high school was the day I knew that I was going to go there -- it just felt right. In much the same way, my visit to Creighton left me with the feeling that I could see myself fitting in very well and being very happy at the school. Hopefully you had a similar feeling.
Other than the overall feeling of the school, I really enjoyed the fact that each person that I had a chance to speak to in my interview group was very similar in key areas. It was a fairly diverse group, but personality wise everyone seemed very laid back, easy going, genuinely nice, down to earth, and excited about the thought of going to Creighton. After talking to my student host, he said that he gets along with a good portion of his class and that people are very, very willing to help eachother out with studying, notes, etc. That was key for me, as the last thing I want to deal with during my first two years is the group of super competitive, cut throat gunners that we often read about on SDN. I think I remember hearing that M2s would give up time to help the M1s by holding mock practicals in anatomy, and there seems to be a pretty good system of matching up M1s with M2s to help ease the transistion into school.
Overall, I felt very, very comfortable with the school, I loved the city of Omaha, and I was encouraged by the fact that my fellow interviewees as well as my host and the other med students that I met all seemed to be great people. A very large percentage of the med students volunteer in some form during med school, which is right in line with most Jesuit schools. I know that I want to be at a school with classmates that genuinely enjoy giving up some free time to help those that are less fortunate. Also, coming from Marquette, I'm a huge college basketball fan, so the fact that Creighton has a good team and that current med students go to games was a big plus.
Also, I think it's pretty sweet that Creighton is pod-casting lectures now, not a big deal, but it certainly will make studying easier. I also don't think that there are many schools that have a chaplain on site that opens up her office for students to nap on the couch, or one that makes coffee for students in the morning. Like I said, I'm not catholic, nor am I very religious, but my experience at a Jesuit school has proven that it doesn't matter. Administrators, faculty, and chaplains are readily available and actually enjoy helping students.
I didn't apply to UN, so I really can't say anything about that school. I just know that despite the extra debt, I'm glad that I went to Marquette versus a cheaper public school, and I am very comfortable going to Creighton over a cheaper in state school. I have a few friends that like to sit down and make pro-con charts, so maybe something like that would help you decide. If money isn't the determining factor, or if you're like myself and love the thought of being $2 billion in debt by the time your done, go to the school that you think you'll be happiest. I would say that irregardless of your financial situation, but I don't know your background and I know that it's a huge factor for some, especially those with families or non-trads. Good luck with trying to make this decision, be glad that you are able to make this tough decision, and make sure you let us know what you decide! Post here or PM me if you have any questions at all and congrats again on your acceptances!
