J2AZ said:Whats the story with these visit/interviews? Did Creighton invite you to visit or did you call them and set it up?
You just call and set them up.
J2AZ said:Are they mandatory for acceptance? How likely is it for the school to accept you if you do not make the trip to Omaha?
They aren't mandatory, and they say that the tour does NOT affect your chances of getting in.
Mostly it is beneficial to see the campus.
Like Gavin said it's easy to set them up. Just call and talk to anyone in the admissions department, and tell them you would like to schedule a visit. I have heard of admin being dumb and giving people the runaraound if they call it an interview, so refer to it as a visit to be safe. They give you a tour of the school then sit you down with the dean of admissions named Dr. Ayers, and he reviews your application with you. I thought it was well worth the time, and got a great idea of all the stuff that Creighton has to offer. They say that it has no effect on acceptance, but that's a load of crap. Anytime they can put an application to a face it is benficial, and of the students even agreed. Can you get accepted with out one? Yes, but as for me I want to see the place before I invest my $30,000+ a year for it. Let me reiterate the fact that Creighton was an awesome school and would be happy to be a part of it.
