Verify Admission Status On-Line: Once you have applied, you may check your admission status online to verify your program of study and the status of any remaining final documents. Log on to UNO's E-BRUNO web site at https://ebruno.unomaha.edu/ using your NUID or SSN and PIN (the Personal Identification Number you indicated on your application for admission) and select "Admission Application Tracking".

NU-ID Number (instead of Social Security Number): The social security number is requested on the apllication for the purposes of verifying credentials, and for services related to determining eligibility for and awarding of financial aid or scholarships. FOr security purposes, all students who apply for admission are assigned an UN ID number for accessing various services across campus, logging in to E-BRUNO for students and for their campus ID MAVCARD. The NU ID is a eight-digit number within the University of Nebraska system so that a student will have the same NU ID on the Lincoln, Kearney and Omaha campuses.

When logging in to E-BRUNO for Students, you may initially enter your SSN or your new NU ID. The first five logins using a current ID or SSN will display the new NU ID. This will allow you to become familiar with the NU ID number and serves as a reminder to use it the next time. FOr more information, please visit the NU ID information webpage at http://www.ses.unomaha.edu/registrar/nuid.php.
