Until Admitted Student Day!

Welcome, Huskers!

Your wait is over. At Nebraska, you'll connect with new people, ideas and experiences. From day one, Huskers build relationships with faculty and peers collaborating to create new knowledge and move the future forward.

Nebraska's Admitted Student Day is an exclusive event reserved for students admitted to the University of Nebraska–Lincoln and their families. This is your can't-miss opportunity to get important info, explore campus, meet with staff from your academic college, ask your need-to-know questions and celebrate new beginnings with your future classmates!

Registration for this event is closed.

If you are interested in attending Admitted Student Day, please reach out to admissions@unl.edu.

We encourage our Fall 2026 admitted students who cannot attend this date to explore all other visit opportunities in April and May.
