The University of Nebraska offers various scholarship options for students, including merit-based, need-based, and program-specific awards. Merit-based scholarships, such as the Chancellor’s Scholarship, recognize academic excellence. Need-based aid, like the Nebraska Opportunity Grant, supports students with financial constraints.
Program-specific scholarships cater to fields like engineering, agriculture, or arts. Additionally, the university participates in federal aid programs, including Pell Grants and work-study opportunities. External scholarships from organizations or private donors are also accessible. Prospective students should complete the FAFSA and explore the university’s scholarship portal for tailored opportunities.
