Advising & Student Resources

Preparing future leaders for careers in aging.

Good results are the result of good planning. Every Gerontology student is encouraged to meet with their academic advisor.

Contact information for Gerontology department advisors can be found on the right side of this page.

Current students may request an appointment with their advisor by using MavTRACK.

Based on your educational needs and goals, advisors are prepared to help you lay out a course plan that will lead you to meeting those goals. At a minimum, you should meet with your advisor once each semester to review your course plan and to make any necessary changes. 

Additionally, your advisor is available to answer questions you may have about degree requirements, adding or dropping courses, transfer credits, course substitutions and more. 

Gerontology Scholarships

All scholarships are managed by a general application through UNO. Please visit UNO Financial Support & Scholarships to learn more about applying for scholarships. 

Out of state students are encouraged to research the Midwest Student Exchange Program (MSEP) and Metropolitan Advantage Program (MAP) for tuition discounts.
