Got Accepted to UNL as an Intl

Just got my preliminary acceptance mail today. But UNL is expensive for me I might get a maximum of 15k scholarship and my costs will come down to 33k per year still. I can only go till 22k per year from my fam. Is there any other way to reduce this costs or doing part time jobs would cover em?

Admissions

Hello all I’m currently a Senior in high school and have been looking at colleges to apply to. I was reading about Nebraska and it said that to be automatically admitted you only need a 20 ACT and above a 2.0 GPA. Is this true even for out of state applicants? Thanks.

I don’t know what to do

I’m a freshman here at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and I don’t know what to do. I came here because I thought it would be more of a party or fun atmosphere than my in state schools back in Kansas but the fraternity I joined has gotten into deep shit since I’ve been here and I don’t know what to do. Part of me wants to stick it out and stay here and find a new one but 10 of the 12 on campus are under some sort of probation or other disciplinary standing with the university. I like it fine here but I’m scared if I transfer to Kansas State or Kansas I’ll regret it or something. What should I do?

Where to Transfer?

Hello everyone,

I am in a bit of an interesting situation and was hoping to get some insight into UNL. I grew up in Nebraska before joining the military and after that, I went to a few community colleges in California and Oregon before being accepted into the University of Washington. However, before I moved to Seattle to start my undergraduate this fall, I had some personal things come up. I ended up recently moving back home and now I am applying to UNK and UNL. I am a business major and plan to start back up in the spring. I don’t know much about either school because I did not have many aspirations for attending college in high school but from what I heard they both offer some great specializations across business and management.

A few considerations to mention, I am a 4.0 student and have been living in large cities for the last 7-8 years. I mentioned previously that I served as a veteran paying for supplies and tuition is not a concern. I have a bias toward UNL because I am a big Huksers fan and would love to watch the boys play live. A great education comes first so if anyone has any advice, I would greatly appreciate it!

Last thing to mention, I worked as a VA work-study a few times and have a great understanding of how to apply/use the GI Bill or VR&E program. Let me know if you’re a service member that needs any assistance and I would be happy to help! Thank you all.

Scholarship decisions timing

Does anyone know the timing for scholarship decisions? My daughter is also really hoping to make this an affordable option (from out of state). My son spent a summer in an MD-PHD program (in Omaha UNMC), but he sold us on Nebraska!! We love Lincoln! Praying for a miracle to lower out of state tuition. Daughter has 4.30 weighted and probably 3.97 UW. Fingers crossed the scholarship letter comes soon. She was just admitted to CS College of Engineering. Hope to see you all in Lincoln soon!

Raikes CS vs Engineering CS

Quick question for any pros. Daughter was just admitted to CS Engineering as she didn’t see Raikes an option on the application for CS/Management. Is Raikes CS still a possible change she could make? She is going to apply to the Honors College when applications open soon and perhaps that’s the timing for Raikes too? (I think she said HC apps aren’t open yet). Just wondering on Raikes (+business) vs CS in Engineering. Thanks so much.

Best meal plan

I’m wondering what the best option is for meal plans. I picked the 12/400 one but I’m considering changing to one with less swipes and more dining dollars because there’s a lot less flexibility with meal swipes, like you can’t use them in the union and if you want to use them at the c-stores you have to do the math to make sure you’re getting your full swipe’s worth of stuff.

Let me know which plan you guys picked or if you have any insight

Trans Girl and the Out of State Conundrum

Hello! I am a Nebraskan senior who is currently working on college applications. There's only one problem: I am a closeted transfem. I have been closeted for 2 years, and my dream was to attend an out of state college where I could transition and truly be myself. However, I am very worried about paying for out of state tuition. I truly don't want to have to stay in Nebraska, as I would have to continue waiting for HRT due to the new anti-trans laws our legislature has passed in the past few years. However, the out of state tuition is a massive problem, and my family likely can't afford it, as we're sending 2 other seniors to college as well. I personally have very good academics (3.96 GPA out of 4.0), and I got a 34 on the ACT. I'm still worried that this won't be enough for me to get enough scholarships, so I need advice. Would it be smarter for me to stay in Nebraska for a far cheaper education but continue to pretend to be a guy for at least a year until I can get HRT? Or do I go out of state in order to actually be a girl and stop my suffering? I understand if this can't be answered, I may just be screaming to the void. I'm just extremely stressed out and I fear for my future. Thank you.
