Why do you think Creighton is special? Creighton is special because of all the different little pockets of campus you can be involved in. Creighton students are so involved, and it is so fun to meet all types of people all over campus!
Do you have any special advice or tips for applicants? You are going to hear a lot of opinions from parents, teachers, friends on where you should go to college, but go where YOU want to go. Do your research as much as you can and ask yourself the question “could these be my people?”.
What do you like about Omaha and what are your favorite secret spots? I love Omaha because there is so much to do, but you can actually find parking! I love how Omaha does not feel like a huge city with the big city inconveniences. There is always a new restaurant to try, a concert to go to, or some type of event happening downtown. Some of my favorite spots are Hook & Lime right by campus, the park at Midtown Crossing, or Inner Rail Food Hall in Aksarben!
