Dedicated to the pursuit of truth in all its forms
Creighton University, steeped in the Jesuit tradition, provides a comprehensive education that extends beyond academics, encompassing its students' spiritual, social and ethical development.
At Creighton, pursuing truth in all forms is paramount, with the Catholic Church's living traditions serving as a compass. This foundation fosters an environment where individuals are encouraged to contemplate their relationship with God and explore transcendent values. While rooted in Catholic values, Creighton embraces inclusivity, welcoming students from all faiths and backgrounds. The University emphasizes the importance of understanding, accepting and supporting others as a core value. We foster a community that respects diverse beliefs and perspectives.
Creighton's educational approach emphasizes the interconnectedness of faith, service and justice. Faculty members instill critical thinking skills and ethical perspectives in students, preparing them to navigate a complex world. Service to others is deeply ingrained, with students encouraged to apply their talents to address societal needs. This commitment to service aligns with the Jesuit principle of "finding God in all things," “men and women for and with others” and promotes a holistic formation that prepares students for lives of meaning and purpose.

Over half of our students come to Creighton to pursue a professional degree. All students have access to intentional pre-professional advising and support. In addition, we’ve created the Creighton Pre-Professional Scholars Program (CPPSP), the country’s most comprehensive, intentional pre-professional advising and guarantee program. It ensures that students who meet specific requirements will be accepted into a professional program after graduation. CPPSP allows qualifying students to participate in our extraordinary guarantee programs in Dentistry, Law, Medicine, Occupational Therapy, Pharmacy, or Physical Therapy. Each CPPSP program has an individual application with requirements specific to that program.
