Benefits & Features

Course attributes allow students and their parents/guardians to see which NU courses use free or reduced-cost course materials at the time of registration so as to make well-informed choices. Course marking has the strong support of UNK, UNL and UNO Student Governments and Faculty Senates.

Getting Started

Students - Searching for ONE Courses

Students can search for ONE-Open Nebraska or OER courses when they register for classes. This means the course will include no- or low-cost materials or reduced cost materials.

Students choosing ONE courses who are taking a full course load can save up to $500 per semester. That's a potential savings of $4,000 over the course of the academic career.

How do I find ONE courses when doing a UNK Class Search?
