Nevada offers a traditional college experience with a modern, outdoorsy twist. From NCAA Division I football to kayaking at the downtown whitewater park, students have a lot to do outside the classroom.
Oh, the eternal question: What do you want to do tonight? At Nevada, students can answer that many ways: catch a midnight movie at the student union, attend a performance of the Nevada Repertory Company, watch NCAA women's volleyball, go snowshoeing under a full moon, compete in an intramural wiffleball tournament, or even, gasp, study in a library tower overlooking the Reno city lights.
Living on campus is the ultimate way to enjoy the college experience. Research shows that campus residents earn better grades and stay more engaged. And with Nevada's mix of both historical and modern residence halls, there is a living situation for everybody.
Nevada wants all its students to be successful. To that end, the university offers an array of services to aid with health, wellness and safety.
It's only natural for a 136-year-old university to have its unique traditions. At Nevada, these include Homecoming, Mackay Week and the "Law of the Jungle."
