HCRC Advising

Advising in the HCRC

The goal of advising in the HCRC is to help you, the student, be the most competitive applicant you can be for the healthcare program of your choice.

We can assist you with career exploration, course planning, extracurriculars, shadowing, volunteering, obtaining patient experience, test prep, study skills, and so much more. Schedule an appointment with us today!

Advising Appointments

In order to best serve our students, the HCRC offers in-person and ZOOM appointments. Appointment types and times vary per advisor, per day.

• Appointments: Appointments are required (except for drop-in advising) and can be made on MavCONNECT. Please ensure you pick the correct appointment type when signing up on MavCONNECT: In-Person or ZOOM. Students may also make an appointment by phone or email by contacting unohealthcareers@unomaha.edu or 402.554.5980.
  
  
• Drop-In Advising during fall and spring semesters: Drop-in advising is held in-person and via ZOOM for minor advising needs. Zoom drop-ins are temporarily on hold. Drop-in advising is not available during the summer.
  
  
• Advising Holds: Students who are not enrolled in a 4-year program such as pre-nursing, pre-dental hygiene, pre-medical imaging, etc. can meet with an HCRC advisor. Other Pre-Health students must also meet with their program or major advisor.

• Prepare for Your Appointment: Plan for an advising meeting to last about 30-45 minutes. Students should prepare specific questions to make the most of their time with an advisor. If the meeting is to discuss future course schedules, students should review the course catalog and have courses in their shopping cart.

• New Students: Students new to UNO must complete Orientation and become familiar with the many resources offered to students before meeting with an HCRC advisor.

• Prospective Students: Visit Future Students to learn more.
