Great Value
UNK is the most affordable Nebraska university and most students receive significant financial aid
"UNK's social work program is full of experiential learning! As someone who thrives on real-world examples, getting the chance to go on field trips and practice social work scenarios has been incredibly helpful and valuable to my education. I also think our professors really do want the best for us, which makes all the students feel much more included in the education process.”
