Welcome home, Huskers! And to our new Fall 2025 Huskers – congratulations! Your adventure at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln is just getting started, and we’re thrilled to have you join our community.
As you begin this academic year, keep in mind that your perseverance and determination will be the foundation of your success. Balancing academics with your personal and professional growth will take commitment, but we believe you have everything it takes to thrive.
While your studies should remain your top focus, be sure to make time for campus life beyond the classroom. Participating in RSOs (Registered Student Organizations), attending events for social, professional, and personal development, and engaging in the UNL community are excellent ways to enrich your experience. These opportunities aren’t just enjoyable – they’re powerful ways to build your network, form lasting friendships, and connect with mentors who can guide you along your journey.
At the International Student and Scholar Office (ISSO), we're here to help you navigate all aspects of campus life. From immigration guidance to non-immigration support, our experienced Immigration Specialists and International Student Success Navigators are ready to assist with your needs.
Beyond immigration services, our support staff is dedicated to enhancing your overall UNL experience. Whether it’s helping you connect with resources or sharing advice for making the most of your time here, we’ve got you covered. And our enthusiastic team of graduate and undergraduate student workers is eager to help you succeed every step of the way.
As you start this exciting chapter, remember – the ISSO is here for you. Let’s make this year one of growth, accomplishment, and unforgettable moments.
Warm regards,
Karen Cagley
Director, International Student & Scholar Office
