The more years your student lives on campus at Nebraska, the more likely they are to graduate, a recent UNL study has shown.* In fact, graduation rates jump significantly when students live on campus a second year. GPAs were also higher as the years in University Housing increased.

Sign-up for 2018-19 is now open with many new options for upperclass students. Meal plans designed for upperclass students offer more flexibility for a busy schedule. Single rooms and apartments are popular choices that give students independence with on-campus convenience. Before your student chooses where they are living for 2018-19, read the reviews and compare. Learn more about on-campus upperclass living options at https://housing.unl.edu/parents.
