As the world has changed, many students' summer plans have changed, as well. As Nebraska's land grant institution, the university has the responsibility to provide students with expanded access to educational opportunities.
"We recognize that many of our students' internships, study abroad, employment, and travel have been impacted by COVID-19," said Executive Vice Chancellor Elizabeth Spiller. "While many of these experiences are no longer available to them, we want to make sure alternative educational opportunities are accessible."
More than 100 courses have been added to the summer catalog with additional creative opportunities being added for fall, as well. A list of new summer courses can be found on the COVID-19 website. Students can also find them in MyRED under class search using filters for subject and session date.
For summer 2020, tuition has been set at the in-person tuition rate for resident and non-resident students, and the university program and facilities fee and online course fee have been waived. Students in professional graduate programs with established program rates will continue with those unchanged.
