The Creighton Value
Creighton's value can be measured in many ways. But we believe the excellence of this education is best expressed in who our students become.
Success
Our graduates have a 99% success rate, meaning they're either employed or enrolled in a graduate or professional school within six months of graduation.
Service
Bluejays hold on to the spirit of service well after graduation.
Committed to promoting social justice and caring for the whole person, our alumni's good work extends far beyond their four or more years at Creighton.
That's just one of the many outcomes of a top-tier Jesuit education.
