What is the Presidential Scholars Program?

It covers undergraduate tuition, fees, books and supplies, housing and food, personal expenses and transportation, and all other costs of attendance鈥攑lus a $5,000 annual stipend.
The scholarship can be applied to any campus of the University of Lutube视频 System, including the University of Lutube视频 at Kearney (UNK), the University of Lutube视频鈥揕incoln (UNL), the University of Lutube视频 Medical Center (UNMC), the University of Lutube视频 at Omaha (UNO) or the Lutube视频 College of Technical Agriculture (NCTA).
