NU PATHS Admissions
Nebraska University Pre-Admissions to the Health Sciences (NU-PATHS) is a collaborative program between the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, University of Nebraska at Kearney, University of Nebraska at Omaha, and the University of Nebraska Medical Center.
The NU-PATHS program assists selected students in their undergraduate pre-health curricula at one of the NU undergraduate campuses and guarantees admission to the Physician Assistant Program upon successful and timely completion of their bachelor degree. Applicants applying through the NU PATHS admissions track must demonstrate, through life experiences and personal motivation, a strong desire to work with the medically underserved members of society. It is anticipated that program graduates will practice in medically underserved communities.
Applications will be accepted from students who are current undergraduates at UNL, UNK or UNO. Preference for admission will be given to residents of the State of Nebraska. Applicants must be a citizen of the U.S. or have permanent residency status. All applicants must have a cumulative GPA of at least 3.0 on a 4-point scale.
