University of Nebraska-Lincoln

I mean, it's the University of nebraska, home of the Nebraska cornhuskers football team, everyone knows the 1995 Nebraska cornhuskers were the greatest college football team of all time and arguably the best football team ever put together to walk onto a field.

So far so good :) A great experience from admission process, through orientation, class registration, and contemporary learning facilities, to the amazing staff in every part of the campus.

Home of one the best place’s in the country to get an education and watch a college football game. The campus and its athletic facilities are incredible.

Can be confusing if you havent been, people are friendly and will try to help out. The college is very nice.

The University of Nebraska–Lincoln (Nebraska, UNL, or NU) is a public land-grant research university in Lincoln, Nebraska. It is the state's oldest university and the flagship institution of the University of Nebraska system. The state legislature chartered the university in 1869 as a land-grant university under the 1862 Morrill Act, two years after Nebraska became a state. At the turn of the 20th century, the university expanded significantly, hiring professors from eastern schools to teach its new professional programs and conducting groundbreaking research in agricultural sciences. The "Nebraska method" of ecological study developed during this time pioneered grassland ecology and laid the foundation for research in theoretical ecology for the rest of the century. The university is organized into eight colleges on two campuses in Lincoln with over 100 classroom buildings and research facilities. It is classified among "R1: Doctoral Universities – Very high research activity". According to the National Science Foundation, Nebraska spent $308 million on research and development in 2018, ranking it 78th in the nation. Nebraska's athletic programs, known as the Cornhuskers, compete in NCAA Division I and are a member of the Big Ten Conference. NU's football team has won 46 conference championships and claims five national championships, with an additional nine unclaimed. The school's volleyball team has won five titles and appeared in the national semifinal nine other times. NU plays its home football games at Memorial Stadium and has sold out every game since 1962. The stadium's capacity of 91,585 people is famously larger than the population of Nebraska's third-largest city.

UNL’s Accounting Office and Unnecessary Student Fees etc I am disappointed with the accounting office at UNL and the way the university prioritizes business and money-making over learning and student support. Every service seems to come with an extra cost. For example, the school charges a fee for issuing a student ID, which seems unnecessary for a first-time issue. When I emailed the business office about the charges on my account, they simply sent me a link saying they charge for even the first ID. However, when I replied with a screenshot of what I had found when looking up information on issuing an ID—which indicated that it is free—they never responded again. Parking is another issue. The university charges more per hour for parking in its garages than the city does for public parking. It’s frustrating that students are expected to pay so much just to access their own campus. Beyond finances, the overall atmosphere of the university does not feel like a place of learning and support. When I had questions about prerequisites in the past about becoming a special education teacher, I either didn’t receive a response and had to email again or was sent from one person to another Another major frustration has been trying to get my 1098-T form for my yearly taxes. While I got part of it, the university did not include or communicate the costs of the study abroad program I did through them, and I’ve been trying to hunt down this information myself. It’s now mid-March. What makes this even more frustrating is that I never experienced these kinds of issues while taking classes or earning a degree elsewhere. Unfortunately, I feel limited here in Nebraska, and at SCC (Southeast Community College) we can only take a limited number of classes. This leaves me stuck dealing with UNL’s bureaucracy and unnecessary costs.

The best place to be. Football Saturday. Volleyball . Baseball. Basketball. Soccer.

We visited the University to see the mammoths at the state museum, a.k.a. Morrill Hall. It was a once in a life-time treat. As a bonus, we got to stroll around the campus. It was beautiful and serene, and filled with lush colors of fall season, in afternoon sunlight.

It's a great University in Nebraska where you will find all nationalities represented. I liked the programs they have for new students where they make sure that you get used to living on campus while getting to know your fellow students. The quality of education if awesome and most of the teachers are very supportive. When you attend UNL, always go to Husker Hub to ask for help if you need anything and don't feel like you don't have any option. They have an answer for any question you might have.

Stadium is a little hard to navigate but everyone even fans are more than willing to help!
