The Global Experiences Office (GEO) is hosting its fourth Husker Passport Giveaway (HPG) this fall. The goal of the HPG is to award 100 free passports.
Recipients will have the full cost of obtaining a U.S. passport covered by the program. The cost of a passport is approximately $180 (application fees + photos). To be considered, an applicant must be a current undergraduate student at Nebraska, actively enrolled in fall 2023, a U.S. citizen, at least 18 years old, and applying for their first U.S. passport book (a student who previously had a passport card only is eligible).
Priority will be given to first generation college students and students who articulate financial need, have two or more semesters remaining before graduation, and plan to participate in an education abroad program. Recipients will be selected based on meeting eligibility requirements and the content of their very brief application essays.
Please help promote this opportunity to your students. Recipients will receive support throughout the preparation and application process from the UNL Passport Office. Passport appointments will be available through mid-December, with passports estimated to arrive by Mar. 1, 2024.
Please contact Rebecca Baskerville (rlbaskerville@unl.edu) with questions.
