Recruitment Events & Visits

Connect with our students, faculty and staff to learn about our different majors, how you can work with industry and employers from day one, and the many opportunities you’ll have to make a difference in your communities. We want to hear your questions and help you make this important college decision. You can visit us in person and/or talk with our recruitment coordinators virtually.

Depending on the major you are considering, you can schedule your visit on UNL's City Campus (Lincoln) or at the University of Nebraska at Omaha, where we offer majors in the Peter Kiewit Institute on Scott Campus. There, you'll enjoy the benefits of UNO's urban campus while earning a Big Ten degree from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.

If you are transferring to the university, you may also schedule a campus visit. While on the visit, you can discuss transfer credits with our staff.
