Global Courses
Global Courses are classes offered by UNO Education Abroad + UNO Academic Departments that give students opportunities for intensive international and domestic learning experiences.
The Facts
Who will I be paying for my program? Program costs will be paid to UNO. Billing typically occurs through MavLINK.
Can I use my UNO tuition scholarships to pay for my program? Yes, UNO tuition scholarships will apply to any UNO tuition costs associated with a global course program. On average, 1-2 Global Courses focused on foreign language each year are set-up as transfer credit, where tuition at a host university abroad is included in the program cost instead of a UNO tuition bill on MavLINK.
Is a global course right for me?
Global courses are great for students who:
-
Want to study abroad for a shorter period of time
-
Feel more comfortable traveling with other UNO students and faculty members
-
Are looking for in-depth information and experiential learning for certain topics
-
Have UNO scholarships and want to apply them to the cost of a program
- Want to take their learning to a new level
