Thank you for your interest in the Engineering Academy! Applications for Cohort 6 are available starting November 1, 2026, for students graduating from a Nebraska high school in May 2027. In addition to completing this application, your full university admission file will be used in the review process.
Please note that each essay question has a 150-word count maximum, and you cannot save your progress in the form. Therefore, we encourage you to complete your essay responses in a separate Word document and then upload them to this form.
If you have any additional questions about the Engineering Academy or our scholarship application process, please feel free to review the informational session we hosted in early December, check out our FAQ page, or reach out to our Assistant Director of Recruitment and Retention, Maggie Miller.
Applications for Cohort 5 are now closed. We will open our application for Cohort 6 on November 1, 2026 for Nebraska high school seniors.
Thanks!
