Hi guys! I'm new to this site and just wanted to start a thread for those applying to Creighton's Fall 2020 program! I put Phoenix as my priority. I have been accepted to Baldwin Wallace's program and am also waiting to hear back from Concordia Unive...

I attended the interview in person so I did both interviews back to back the same day.

Hey CONGRATS! The two interviews are pretty much the same questions, one with faculty and the other with the head of admissions. There was an essay question, I would keep it short and simple. It's hard to remember now but they asked me why BW, why I ...

I would let them know, I emailed the other schools I applied to and they said they really appreciated it.

What’s your number?

Awesome! Me too I’d be so sad if they had to push it back or something ?

Haha nice, are you for sure going to BW?

Someone just started a group chat on WhatsApp but there’s only two of us on there so far, an email got sent out to join for people who have paid the deposit I think

Yayy so happy for you!! Congrats! ?

I think it might be more expensive because it’s 12 months but that’s the only thing I can think of. At first I was only looking at 12 month programs but in the end I think I would be more successful if I had some breaks and 3 more months isn’t going ...

Hey! Congrats on getting into BW! I feel pretty set on BW this point. It’s $10,000 cheaper than Creighton and all the books, uniforms, and supplies are included in tuition. I flew out to Ohio for my interview to get a feel for the school and everyone...

Congrats!! Let us know which one you choose

No you should definitely talk about your achievements, that's what they want to hear! You don't have to say it in a braggy way but just tell them the things you've done and what you're proud of. Talk about the good qualities you have, like I said I a...

Ugh I can’t decide. I’m getting married right before the program starts so I feel like living on campus would be a little weird but it’s hard to pass up since all the utilities are paid for and it’s fully furnished so we wouldn’t have to take a Uhaul...

Nice!! It took a good two weeks to hear back. They meet every other Friday to discuss candidates so I guess it just depends on if your interviews land on that week on not!

Awesome well good luck and let me know how it goes!

Oh yay congrats!! When's your interview? My advice would be to relax and make them laugh a little if you can. Be upbeat and happy! Make sure your answers are long enough and tell a story but not overly lengthy where they lose interest. They just wan...

I hope you guys do too!!

I get that! They did tell me though that we wouldn't have to pay for anything more than the tuition price, so books and uniforms are free and there's no other fees at least.

Same, at first I was just looking for 12 month programs to get it done as quickly as possible but 3 more months really isn't going to make much of a difference and I can keep my sanity ?

Where else have you applied? ? Yeah I was super impressed honestly, I especially liked that they give you a week off in Thanksgiving, three weeks for Christmas, and 5-6 weeks off during summer! (Someone else told me 7-8 weeks in the summer though so ...

Good luck! Keep me updated ?

Thank you! I actually reached out to them after I applied about once a week to make sure they had gotten everything since some of my transcripts had to be sent by mail. Once they had received all my materials, I think it was about another week until ...

Hey guys! I just got my acceptance email today :) I have also applied to Concordia University Irvine and Creighton's Phoenix campus but I was super impressed with what BW had to offer when I visited. Hopefully these tips can help! I did my interview ...
