Do you have a way with writing? An eye for photography? A knack for filming? Do you want to document your time abroad while building transferable skills and adding to your resume? Apply to be a UNO Education Abroad featured blogger or takeover our Instagram!
Contact us at unostudyabroad@unomaha.edu. We want to see & hear from you!
Commitments are minimal - you can post often or at the midpoint of your program. If you are in receipt of a UNO scholarship, this works well with your requirements. We support vlogging, writing, and photography!
