Creighton Student Stories
What it means to be a Bluejay.
Students come to Creighton from all over—77% of our freshmen are from outside of Nebraska, 42% of our freshmen are from more than 400 miles away.
And they thrive here because they find opportunities and support for their goals. Being a Bluejay means being part of a community invested in you. Our time together will shape your future, so let’s make the most of it.
See what our students and alumni say about being in the Creighton family.
