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.
Yes, UNO tuition scholarships will apply to any UNO tuition costs associated with a global course program. Federal Financial Aid can also be used towards Global Course programs.
Special Note: On average, one to two Global Courses focused on foreign language each year are set-up as a combination of UNO credit and transfer credit, where tuition at a host university abroad is included in the program's travel cost. UNO tuition scholarships will not apply to host university tuition costs, only to the UNO tuition. Usually, these programs feature a 3-credit UNO class and a 3-credit host university class. Federal Financial Aid can apply to both UNO and host university tuition.
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/staff 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
Early applications are encouraged!
