This section highlights scholarship opportunities that I am made aware of. There are many internal and external scholarships that students can apply for. For more information about scholarship opportunities, go to the Financial Aid website at https://financialaid.unl.edu/scholarships.

The External Scholarships page is continually updated with available scholarships.

Define American would like to share with you our application for the Juan N. Franco legacy Scholarship. The Juan N. Franco Legacy Scholarship, formerly known as the Hope for the Future Scholarship, was created in the Fall of 2016. Students who led the creation of the scholarship believed in the importance of higher education. The scholarship is meant to support students who are ineligible for financial aid through FAFSA.
This is an internal scholarship available to current UNL students or incoming freshmen. The application is currently open and will last until April 15, 2025. Here’s a direct link to the scholarship application: https://oasis.unl.edu/franco-legacy-scholarship/
