Admission Decisions

Admission by Review

Students who do not meet all the entrance requirements for Assured Admission may be considered for Admission by Review (ABR). Each applicant will be assessed and considered for admission individually. The student's cumulative high school grade point average, class rank, ACT/SAT scores, and core course grades are all regarded as key elements in entrance evaluation and decision-making. The student may be asked to present more documentation

You can enroll at the institution if you accept the terms of your admission. Academic progress may be tracked for students admitted under ABR. Certain students could be admitted with conditions to finish particular courses and/or make use of academic support to make up for their deficiencies.  

Provisional Admission

Provisionally admitted students are those accepted into the university while waiting for their official admission documents.

If you are enrolled in high school or college courses, all entrance offers are provisional. Your final transcripts must be received and reviewed before Final admission. If your final coursework does not match admission requirements, admission offers could be revoked.

On MavLINK, you can examine the necessary documents to finish your admission. Submitting all documents is required within the first eight weeks of the initial enrollment period. In the case that you don't, you can be prevented from registering again by an enrollment hold.

Applicants with Academic Suspension or Dismissal Record

Admission to UNO is not available to students whose academic records indicate that they were dismissed or placed on academic suspension at any college or university during the previous calendar year. Once UNO receives a transcript or other communication indicating suspension or dismissal within the last calendar year, the student's enrollment will be discontinued, and any tuition paid for the semester will be reimbursed. After the last term in which they were suspended, the student would have one full year to reapply for admission to UNO.

Deferred Admission

For those students who do not meet the admission requirements, their admittance to UNO will be delayed while they pursue further education at another postsecondary institution.

Fraudulent and Incomplete Applications

If any information is given fraudulently or falsely on the admission application, or if transcripts or other documents submitted (to support an admission application or to obtain residency) are altered or fraudulent, the university reserves the right to revoke admission, including dismissal from the university.
