University Housing has established email as an official and primary means of communication with all its past, current and future residents. However, students may also be contacted by telephone, text or campus mail.
- Once students receive their official Huskers email address, University Housing will communicate with the student using the official Huskers email address. (Prior to this, Housing will communicate with students via the email on their housing application.) Students are responsible for reading all information sent to them via this email account. Electronic communication sent by University Housing will be deemed received on the next University business day after the email was sent.
- University Housing is not responsible for email communication blocked due to spam filters, restrictions imposed by the recipient’s email service, or the student not checking and reading emails daily.
- Students can provide a family member’s email address on the contract; however, all communication will go to the student’s email of record at UNL. Once the contract is signed, family members will receive important information emails a few times each semester, if we have a family member email address on file.
