New Student Onboarding
The Office of Academic Success is here to assist you with the steps all new students need to complete before the first day of classes.
There may be additional steps and differences depending on your college, program, and/or campus. Students should review the college-specific onboarding pages located below. These pages will list additional steps and/or different procedures specific to your program.
Most importantly, check your UNMC email frequently. Critical information will be sent to that email.

UNMC Student Resources
How do I access accessibility services? How can I connect with the community while I'm at UNMC? What resources can I find at the McGoogan Library? Find answers to these questions and more by browsing the Student Resources playlist, where offices from around UNMC have created 2-minute videos to introduce you to services around campus.
