What is UNO Direct?
UNO Direct Programs give Mavericks the opportunity to enroll directly at one of UNO's partner universities around the world.
UNO Direct partners have been selected for their affordable tuition, high level of support, and academic fit with UNO's degree programs. Students can spend a semester, academic year, or sometimes even a summer session studying through UNO Direct. Tuition is paid to the partner university, but UNO students have their financial aid processed through UNO and remain a degree seeking student. Federal and State grants, loans, and Nebraska Promise can all be used when studying abroad at a UNO Direct partner. UNO tuition scholarships do not apply, as tuition is not paid to UNO. If you have a UNO tuition scholarship, we encourage you to look into an Exchange Program or Global Course.
