Next Chapter at Nebraska is a college readiness program that helps students prepare for and succeed in college by providing the skills students need to reach their academic goals. The program is facilitated through Nebraska 4-H.

The program is offered to students beginning in the 8th grade. Throughout high school, Next Chapter scholars will engage in events, activities and curriculum where they will participate in career exploration, develop research skills and experience a variety of learning methods that will help them transition to and succeed in college.

"Through Next Chapter at Nebraska, not only do we want to inspire youth to choose to continue their education after high school, but also ensure that they succeed once they start college," said Nebraska 4-H Program Administrator Kathleen Lodl.

Next Chapter at Nebraska is a collaborative effort between Nebraska 4-H and the Office of Admissions at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln. For more information, visit admissions.unl.edu/nextchapter.
