Newly admitted graduate students, non-degree seeking students and graduate assistants are invited to join us in August for an on-campus, in-person welcome event. There are representatives from the UNO Office of Graduate Studies and many of our campus partners on hand to answer questions. The New Graduate Student Admit Welcome is a one stop shop for making sure our new admits are ready to begin the fall semester. Additionally, all new admits are highly encouraged to check our Virtual Graduate Orientation linked below.
