OMAHA – The first signs of a new school year at the University of Nebraska at Omaha (UNO) will be clear to see on Sunday, Aug. 16, as the first group of students move into their on-campus housing units.

From 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. the first 960 students who will be living on campus for the 2015-2016 school year will move in to their new homes at Scott Court and Scott Village on UNO’s Pacific Campus.

UNO opened its first apartment-style housing unit in 1999 with the building of University Village. Scott Hall began serving UNO students in 2000 followed soon after Scott Village opening in 2003, Maverick Village in 2008 and Scott Court opening in 2011.

A new mixed-use housing facility is scheduled to open on the Pacific campus in time for the 2017-2018 school year.
