How to Register
After You're Admitted
Welcome aboard! We're happy to have you. Here are your next steps after being admitted as a Nebraska Now student.
1. As a Nebraska Now student, you are considered a "visiting student" at the university, which means you do not intend to earn a degree from Nebraska (yet).
2. You will receive an email letting you know you're admitted. This email will tell you how to set up your MyRed account and claim your NUID (you need both to register for classes).
3. One business day after you are admitted you will be able to register for classes. Here's how:
- Log in to MyRed.
- Click the "Enrollment" tab at the top.
- Select the term for which you've been admitted.
- Click the blue "Enroll in Classes" button.
- On this page (and this page only) you will find Nebraska Now classes.
- Use the 4-5 digit codes for each class to sign up.
Important: choose the 800 section for online classes or the 801 section for in-person classes. ALL other sections
will cause you to be billed for full tuition (not the $330 flat rate for Nebraska Now students).
- Once you've selected your classes, click the blue "Proceed to Enrollment Checkout" button.
- You will receive confirmation that the classes were added to your schedule soon after.
4. Log Into Blackboard
Once you're registered for classes, they will appear in Blackboard, which will be your hub of information and communication with your professor and fellow classmates.
There is a self-paced Blackboard orientation you can access by clicking the "Nebraska Now Online Modules for First Year Students"
under My.UNL Courses. It will teach you how to navigate Blackboard, find your course syllabi, locate useful campus resources, and get in contact with your professor.
If you have questions, contact the Nebraska Now team in the Office of Admissions.
If you need help with any of the registration steps for Nebraska Now, contact the team at
veronicatabor@experience.unl.edu or 402-472-4842.
They're here to help if you need advice on how to adjust to college level work, navigate Blackboard/Canvas,
and anything else you might need to be your best.
Nebraska Now Courses for Summer/Fall 2022
A few important notes:
- Registration is open for Summer 2022 courses.
- Summer applications must be submitted by May 10, 2022.
- For Summer courses, please select the sections that come up when you search for Mode of Instruction “Nebraska Now Online Class” to get the Nebraska Now tuition rate.
- For the Fall Semester, only the 800 (online), 801 (on campus), 802 (on campus), and 803 (on campus) sections of the courses listed below are eligible for the Nebraska Now tuition rate.
- All courses are online unless specifically noted as on-campus.
- You will be able to register for Nebraska Now classes after you have completed and submitted the visiting student application and also admitted to the program.
Typically, students can be admitted to the Nebraska Now program in as few as 24-48 hours, before enrolling in a Nebraska Now course. Students must wait to enroll
until they are officially admitted. All Nebraska Now students are considered visiting students and are able to take up to 6 credit hours per semester for the flat
and reduced rate that Nebraska Now offers. Any high school senior who wishes to take Nebraska Now courses must fill out the visiting student application, in addition
to their first year college student application (degree seeking), in order to enroll for these courses.
- If a student wishes to take a course on campus, immunization records will need to be submitted to the University Health Center through MyRED using the
instructions found here.
- What is ACE? The University of Nebraska–Lincoln's Achievement-Centered Education (ACE) general education program is built on student learning outcomes that answer the fundamental
question of what all undergraduate students, irrespective of their majors and career aspirations, should know or be able to do upon graduation. More
details about our ACE learning outcomes can be found here. If you have questions about how
these might apply toward a potential degree at the university, please call the Nebraska Now hotline at 402-472-4842.

What Your Courses Get You
We are a regionally accredited institution which means our credits will transfer to most other institutions. The real benefit, however, is that Nebraska
Now courses fit into the majority of degree programs offered through Nebraska. If you plan on attending Nebraska as a degree-seeking student, many of the
core class requirements will be checked off by your Nebraska Now courses. That means you get a better head start than any other college preparation program
can provide. The Undergraduate Catalog is a great resource to use when setting up a plan
toward your degree. Here, you can see four-year sample plans for each major. You can also search by course title or ACE requirement to learn how Nebraska
Now courses will fit into future degree options.
