Unexpected opportunity. That’s what you’ll find at the University of Nevada, Reno. Founded in 1874 as the Silver State’s first university, Nevada is a topcaliber, land-grant research university committed to serving the common good of the state and the world. Nestled at the intersection of the Great Basin and Sierra Nevada, the 17,000-student campus offers competitive degree programs and paradigm-shifting research in a world-class setting.
Located at the base of the Sierra Crest in the Truckee Meadows, Reno’s outdoor recreation possibilities are unlimited. Lake Tahoe is only about a 40-minute drive west from downtown Reno, offering opportunities for skiing, snowboarding, mountain biking, hiking, kayaking, and camping. Pyramid Lake and the Black Rock Desert - home to the annual counter-culture festival, “Burning Man” - are only about an hour’s drive to the east.

The Unexpected Awaits You
An incredible education at a price you can afford
Wolf Pack Athletics Those words from Rudyard Kipling’s “The Second Jungle Book,” start a verse that captures the essence of Nevada Wolf Pack athletics. With 18 varsity teams competing in the always unpredictable Western Athletic Conference, Nevada students have free front-row seats to exciting NCAA-Division I athletics, often watching the Pack compete in the postseason.
Campus Tour/Experience The Nevada campus says it all The most unexpected part of Nevada may be its beautiful 125-year-old Reno campus overlooking the Sierra Nevada. The campus is a mix of living history, from nineteenth century Morrill Hall, which sits on an elm-tree-lined grassy quadrangle, to the technologically savvy Davidson Math and Science Center, Mathewson-IGT Knowledge Center and Joe Crowley student union, all built in the last five years.
