Residency Status

Qualifying for residency for tuition purposes at the University of Nebraska differs from what is normally required to be considered a "resident" of the State of Nebraska. A person may be considered a "resident" of Nebraska and still be Non-Resident for tuition purposes. More information regarding residency status can be found at UNMC Nebraska Residency.

Health Insurance

Please note: MLS Program students must have health insurance throughout their enrollment in the program. This requirement can be met by purchasing a University-endorsed plan, or the student can provide evidence of comparable coverage through spouse’s, employer’s, parents', or personal plan, in which case the fee is waived.

Parking

Parking permits will only be required for those students who spend time on the UNMC campus; monthly rates are available for students who only require parking for the student laboratory phase of the program.
