On November 6th, the Cozad High School Junior Class traveled to Lincoln to tour the University of Nebraska–Lincoln City Campus. During the visit, students met with a UNL representative who shared valuable information about the importance of higher education, the benefits of earning a college degree, admission requirements, and available FAFSA and scholarship opportunities. Afterward, the juniors enjoyed a guided campus tour and wrapped up their visit with a delicious buffet-style lunch in one of the campus dining halls.

A huge thank-you to EducationQuest for making this experience possible through our College Access Grant, which Mrs. Rossell and Mrs. Haarberg applied for. This grant helps provide our students with valuable opportunities to explore college campuses and prepare for their future!
