Application Process

• Start your application at go.unl.edu/apply
• Select “Nebraska Now Program” when asked to choose your “Type of Degree.”

As a Nebraska Now student, you are considered a "visiting student" at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln, which means you do not intend to earn a degree from the university. If you are applying during your senior year and plan to attend Nebraska after high school, you must complete both the “visiting student” application AND the “degree seeking” first-year college student application.

• Pay the $45 application fee prompted at the end of your application. After submitting your application, you will not be required to provide any other form of documentation. The Nebraska Now application is honored for one academic year. Students who apply for a summer or fall session will not need to reapply in the spring.
