The University of Nebraska–Lincoln takes the health and safety of our campus community very seriously. As the United States and global health officials continue to address the spread of novel coronavirus and COVID-19 infection, health and emergency preparedness officials at UNL are monitoring the situation in collaboration with our university and governmental partners. Official updates regarding UNL's response are found at https://covid19.unl.edu/2019-novel-coronavirus-covid-19.
New Digital Events: Like most universities, Nebraska has cancelled all in-person events for the foreseeable future. Although we can't connect in person, we still strive to provide students with the information they need to move their future forward. We have moved many of our interactive, in-person events online so students and parents can connect with us from the comfort and safety of their homes.
Online Info Sessions: Students and parents can join our recurring online info sessions, including:
*Value at Nebraska Info Sessions: Any Weekday at 10:30 a.m. CDT — Nebraska offers competitive scholarships and among the lowest tuition in the Big Ten. Learn more about the value of a Nebraska education, how we prepare students for great careers, and get your financial aid questions answered.
*Senior Info Sessions: Mondays and Fridays at 9:30 a.m. CDT — Learn about the next steps to becoming a Husker, connect with university staff and future classmates, and explore how Nebraska will help you on a path toward a successful career.
*Academic Program Info Sessions: Any Weekday at 11 a.m. CDT — Dig deep into an academic area or major that interests you—choose from a variety of academic disciplines and learn more about your fields of interest in an info session hosted by our academic colleges.
To attend a session, students will need an access link and password—send them to the register link below and have them select as many information sessions as they'd like to attend. We'll do the rest.
