Bridge to Creighton NEW

Bridge to Creighton enables eligible students to earn up to six credits by completing the following courses:

• A three-credit composition course that provides practice and techniques for the writing projects included in Creighton classes.
• A two-credit academic success course that orients students to the services available on Creighton’s campus.
• An additional 0.5–1 credit can be earned by working with a faculty advisor and a small cohort of peers to examine and experience key elements of Creighton University life together.

After students complete the program and begin taking full-credit courses at Creighton, IELI instructors continue to serve as a resource, collaborating with students’ other Creighton professors to support academic success. 

Bridge to Creighton is designed for students who have applied to Creighton University as undergraduates. Based on English proficiency scores, some students may be placed into the program. For these students, Bridge to Creighton represents the pathway to full undergraduate admission—unless they retake an English proficiency test and achieve a passing score before the deadline to change their initial admission decision.

If a student already has a minimum passing English proficiency score for full admission, they may still be eligible for the Bridge program.
