UNO's general freshman route can admit applicants with a qualifying core GPA without SAT or ACT, followed by placement testing. International freshmen still need an approved math route—ACT Math 19, SAT Math 510, or qualifying college math—and an English route, so applicants should not treat the international process as fully test-optional.

What this information means

Model the complete four-year cost

A lower listed price can still be unaffordable after exchange-rate changes, travel, insurance, and annual increases. Compare the amount your family can sustain for four years.

No international-aid percentage is listed

Do not read the missing statistic as zero aid. Check the official international financial-aid and merit-scholarship pages directly.

Selectivity needs context

The overall rate does not account for international status, aid need, program demand, or the strength of your preparation. Use it only to balance the list, not to label the college a safety.
