Creighton is a private university with a network of campuses in Omaha, Phoenix and the Dominican Republic. We proudly embrace our roots in the Jesuit, Catholic tradition, while believing in the importance of respecting each individual, their experiences and their own traditions.

An Education That’s Personal and Focused on Success

99% of recent Creighton grads are employed, pursuing an advanced degree or participating in service within six months.

Bring your passion to Creighton, and we’ll supply the fuel to propel you forward. Here, you can pursue—or discover—your calling. More than half of our entering freshman indicate an interest in a pre-professional program, such as pre-law or pre-medicine. Overall, 79% of our students indicate an interest in pursuing a career in the health sciences or business. No matter what path they choose, our students leave prepared for their next step thanks to top programs and support inside and outside the classroom.

Along with top academics, Bluejays have unparalleled access to real-world opportunities, including research as early as freshman year. You can also take advantage of study abroad options, faculty-led service trips, internships and more. We have more internship opportunities than students—81% of Creighton undergraduates participate in an internship or research project by graduation.

Scholarships and Financial AidWe believe everyone deserves a chance to experience a Creighton education, and we work to make it affordable. Creighton offers merit-based scholarships as well as need-based financial support. Students who submit the FAFSA can be considered for federal and institutional grants as well as low interest rate loans. 92% of our undergrad students receive financial aid.

A Community That Cares

One of the first things people notice about Creighton is the community feel. Here, faculty members are more like mentors, and classmates become lifelong friends. With a low 11:1 student-to-faculty ratio, Creighton offers a close-knit, small-school feel with big-school opportunities and spirit. We’re part of the BIG EAST Conference, and you can show your Bluejay pride cheering on teams from basketball to soccer.

You’ll find your fit with a wide range of clubs, intramurals and service groups. Omaha is one of the 40 largest cities in the U.S. Step off campus, and you’ll be in the middle of historic neighborhoods—each with plenty of restaurants, live music, shopping and entertainment.

A Jesuit Education

We’re proud of our Jesuit, Catholic roots. Here, students of all faiths are invited to explore what it means to be human and put their hearts into action. Each year, our students complete thousands of service hours, and they continue our history of impact as they go out into the world.

At Creighton, you’ll find a tradition of compassion, transformation and action paired with a commitment to inclusion, reflection and growth.

This is education for the greater good.
