FREE APPLICATION FOR FEDERAL STUDENT AID
Any student, regardless of income, who wants to be considered for federal, state, and school financial aid programs should complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form. Colleges and career schools use the FAFSA form to determine how much financial aid you’re eligible to receive. The form should be completed for each academic year.
Financial aid at the University of Nebraska - Lincoln is awarded on a first-come, first-served basis. Please file the FAFSA Form by the May 1 priority date. If selected for verification, students are encouraged to submit all requested documents by the June 1 document deadline for priority consideration.

DIAMOND CLOVER PROGRAM
The Nebraska 4-H Diamond Clover program encourages 4-H youth to engage in a variety of programs, projects, and activities that will enable youth to acquire skills and abilities that will prepare them for success in the future. The program is designed to reach and recognize all youth engaged in 4-H, from club members and campers to school enrichment, afterschool, and special interest program participants.
At the beginning of the 4-H year, participants plan what to accomplish and at the end of the 4-H year, they report on their completed accomplishments. Successful completion of a level’s Plan & Report form results in a 4-H youth earning that level of the Diamond Clover program.
For more information about the requirements for each level, see https://4h.unl.edu/diamond-clover
