Campus Visits
Prospective Students Welcome
Selecting a graduate school is not just about finding the top-ranked program or professor in your area. It's also about finding a place, on campus and off, that fits you. We are confident that you will find the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and the city of Lincoln a supportive and welcoming environment for your graduate education.
Come see our campus, meet our students and faculty face-to-face, and learn more about how UNL and Lincoln can meet your unique needs. To schedule a visit, start by talking to the contact in your department of interest, or contact us at or 402-472-2875.
We realize that many of you are unable to visit UNL, especially those of you applying from overseas. For you, we offer a virtual tour of UNL and a promise that we'll answer any questions you might have about coming here for graduate study.
Coming Soon to Fairs Across the Country
Even if you can't come to Lincoln for a visit, you may be able to talk to one of us at a fair near you. Representatives from the Office of Graduate Studies and academic departments travel to campuses throughout the country to attend graduate college recruitment fairs as well as present graduate workshops and seminars to students, parents, and faculty about opportunities for graduate education at the University of Nebraska.
