Graduate Admission & Audition Information

Apply to Nebraska.

Create an account and apply using the Graduate Studies application portal.

The application will request you provide copies of transcripts and references.

Provide copies of transcripts showing all postsecondary coursework completed, including all studies for which credit was granted (e.g. summer institutes such as Aspen or Interlochen).

• Transcripts and/or mark sheets must show the grades earned in each course.

• A diploma or certificate of graduation is required if the transcript does not include the name of the degree and the date it was conferred.

• If the academic records are in a language other than English, the UNL Office of Graduate Studies must receive both the (1) original language documents and (2) a word-for-word English translation.

• Further information can be found: https://graduate.unl.edu/admissions/requirements#transcripts.
