Creighton is by far the best fit for me and any other prospective students looking for a high quality education respected by many. The small class size enables students to get to know their professors and have that personal relationship with them. The amount of respect communities, in Nebraska and across the nation, give to Creighton students is outstanding because they know that only the motivated optimistic students of America go to Creighton University.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Prospective students need to know that Creighton holds a high standard to all of their students. If you want to have a high quality education where students strive to get involved, be the best, show school spirit at Basketball and Soccer games, and study hard then Creighton is the school for you. Come take a visit because even though Creighton looks great in stats and on paper, it looks even better walking down the main street watching the leaves turn colors in the Autumn sun, seeing all the lights lit up around Christmas time, or that first snowfall where it looks like a Winter Wonderland.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
Creighton is a school where its never to early to study hard and be challenged by the rigorous courses. Of course as the years go by and you get further into your degree the more work must be shown to have success at Creighton. The teachers are always available to talk and they want to make you be the best you can. Compared to many other schools I believe that Creighton gives you a better general education so the success rate is higher in specialty classes therefore the job opportunities and internships are higher because of the high academic rigor started when a freshmen.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
As like any dorm system at any university you will be paired at random with a roommate. I was paired with another Cross Country kid and it goes great. We are on the same schedule and we get to hang out a lot. Other non-athletic dorm rooms would have a random partner and you get to meet them very quickly. The dorms plan activities for everyone so you get to know your floor more. There are neutral zones where many people hang out and do homework, play fuse ball, or mingle with the other floors. The halls are nice and the rooms are not bad small but they bigger with seniority. Overall it is pretty good its mainly what you make of it.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
There are two main dining halls and depending on what dorm you are in you have three meals close to where you live. Once you get bored of the meals in one hall there is always another and different choices to choose from. There are many options for vegetarians and normal eaters and it changes every day.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
Attending athletic events is a great way to stay in loop at Creighton. Having at least 3, sometimes more, Missouri Valley Conference Championship teams at Creighton its always fun seeing Creighton dominate other teams. There are concerts either on campus or close to campus and there are also attractions such as the Omaha Zoo, The Art Museum, and downtown. Downtown is called Old Market and there are tons of restaurants and shops to choose from for a night full of fun.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
The school is very expensive but every penny of that is paying for an education that can't be attained anywhere else. You get into all sporting events free and you even get dicounts through the school on books, apple gear, and other activites like concerts, FREE!! If you are interested in studying abroad as well your scholarships can transfer over to the school you will be studying to abroad.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
All the freshmen have Welcome Week where there are dances and social events to get to know people. There is the notorious Foam Party every year where they have a foam machine that fills a patio with foam and you and your friends have to try and stick together.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
This school is great for smart, self motivated, humble kids who want to go further than the normal college education but have the full college experience as well.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
There are tons of clubs and activities to join at the club fair in the fall and if you miss that, joining is a click away when the weekly newsletter is sent. Every type of person has an activity they can be in and that includes Intramural Sport. Many IM sports are played and tons of kids have free time to play.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
There are many Fraternities and Sororities all of which freshman can join in the Spring of their first year during rush week. Many activities like bowling pizza and community service are all qualities of most of the Greek life at Creighton.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
Public Safety is very fast and there are call boxes all around campus. They are one phone call away. Campus is small enough and surrounded facilities that safety is important but crime rate is very low to none.
