UNL is a very large college, and unlike other big schools UNL makes sure to have the professors take time to get to know the students. With other large colleges you hear about how the professors ave big classes and that they dont care about their job, at UNL it is obvious that the professors are passionate about what their teaching which provokes my interest more in class also.

UNL is unique from other school because of UNL’s ability to provide research undergrad opportunities. In terms of obtaining a biochemistry degree, lab experience is crucial to being an effective student and scientist. Students whom work at the lab at UNL can also obtain a grant that pays them for working alongside professors. Here the professors don’t have the lab assistants clean all the petri dishes and pipets, but rather have students work on their own project. UNL believes that students are more than capable when given the opportunity to succeed.

The most unique thing about Lincoln is the diversity of students and people you encounter. This school is affordable for both in state tuition and out of state tuition. People from across the country come to the University of Nebraska at Lincoln and this makes an experience that you can't get anywhere else.
Cara
My school is unique because a lot of people know each other and the people are friendly, making it fairly easy to make friends.
Charles
They were the only ones that offered a Forensic Science program that was offered practically anywhere. I love the program because it's not too big which makes it easier to get to know the professors well. The program is hands on, plus there are internship opportunities and seminars where you can hear from actual forensic scientists in various fields.

Compared to the other schools I applied for, I enjoy that downtown Lincoln, the Haymarket, the capitol, and various parks and recreational areas all surround the campus.

The University of Nebraska campus is close to downtown Lincoln and many restaurants and bars and entertainment are located within a five to ten minute vicinity. There is always something to do on campus with the wide variety of clubs and activities. You can be sure to find your fit in any area if it be Art, Math, Knitting, Reading, Music, and there is opportunity to meet with someone to study with or tutor in every area of study. The campus is pretty and Greek life is present and active. Football gameday is always an all-day event.

The honor's program was very appealing because of the small classes and thesis you do your senior year. The greek life and the campus's appearence was also a big plus.

I believe that every school has it's own unique qualities. UNL was unique to me because it had a different feel than other schools. I'm not really sure what exactly it was, but the campus just felt like home in a way that no other schools had.

UNL offers many different educational aspects, and many professors are the writers of textbooks, so you know you're getting the best of the best information possible. I was also driven to UNL because of the Greek system. The sororities and fraternities on campus are not only great places to make life-long friends, but they are also very persistent of grades, persuading everyone to achieve their highest gpa possible.
Kara
UNL has a large-campus feel in a smaller town.

The University of Nebraska, Lincoln is a school of diversity. There are undergraduate and graduate students that come from all around the world. The school is filled with a variety of students of different religions, backgrounds, races, and they all have different majors and directions they are heading in their lives. But everyone of those students no matter where they have come from all are here for one reason and it is to be educated. This makes our school unique because not only does it educate, but unifies the students. It brings several different worlds together into one university.
Stephanie
It was the best finanicial choice that still had a strong academic record.
Brandea
I think the Greek life is great to get involved in and really let's you meet tons of people. It is also a great way to network in order to do better in classes.
Laura
Great social life opportunities.
Zach
The people that go to the University of Nebraska at Lincoln have way more pride in their school than the other schools I looked into
Timothy
The level of school spirit here is just simply unheard of.
Blair
It is much bigger, but much less expensive than other schools I considered. It's not very unique.
Luressa
you can choose your friends, and be connected with many people, but still be surrounded by people you like, and want to be around, with a strong feeling of community. it's bigger, better opportunities after graduation.
Scout
This school is much larger than all the other schools I considered. It has a wide range of programs of studies and more opportunities than many small schools.
