NU Paths - Deadline February 1
Nebraska University Pre-Admission to the Health Sciences (NU-PATHS) is a collaborative program developed 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 selected UNMC program upon successful, and timely, completion of their undergraduate pre-professional program of study.
The purpose of NU-PATHS is to recruit and educate academically talented students who demonstrate, through life experiences and personal motivation, a desire
to become health care professionals who are willing to serve persons in need of health care in medically underserved communities. It is anticipated that
program graduates will practice in medically underserved urban communities.
