The University of Nebraska-Lincoln offers one of today’s most dynamic college experiences.The university has developed a national reputation for its substantial out-of-state scholarship program. As a result, more students nationwide are finding that the university, with its strength in undergraduate education, its tradition of student engagement, its lively campus atmosphere and its connection to downtown Lincoln, is uniquely suited to provide an enriching student experience. The University delivers on the all-too-often empty promise of the friendliness of a private college with major university resources. It is no wonder alumni stay connected years after graduating and thousands of miles from campus. The University is located in the capital city of Lincoln, a community of 230,000 that combines a friendly college-town atmosphere with the cultural and employment opportunities of a larger city. Students looking for cultural experiences and internship possibilities find art, music, theatre, state government, and industry all within two blocks of campus. On campus, students receive ticket discounts for major Broadway performances like Rent and Chicago at one of the Midwest’s premier venues, the Lied Center for Performing Arts. Lincoln has more parks per capita than any other city in the U.S. and a growing network of bike paths that extend far beyond the city limits. There are 16 golf courses, hundreds of restaurants, more than 30 movie screens, major shopping malls, and a restored downtown historic district complete with specialty shops, coffeehouses, and a dinner theater. NEBRASKA graduates recently interviewed on campus with major national companies like Abercrombie & Fitch, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), IBM, Microsoft, Sprint, Target, and The Washington Post.
