NursingCAS & Admissions Workshop – Omaha, NE
August 6, 2015 @ 9:00 am - 2:00 pm
We are thrilled you can join us at the University of
Nebraska Medical Center for this event!
The event is being held in the College of Nursing Building on Campus
Address: The College of Nursing (CON) building is located at 4111 Dewey Avenue, Omaha, NE 68198 which is at the corner of 42nd Street and Dewey Avenue. It is a 5-story brown brick building.
Room: CON 1011 (located on the 1st floor). You will likely be entering on the 2nd floor/Deans Office level. Take the elevator to the 1st floor.
Parking: Park in Lot 15S which is located 2 blocks east of the CON building. If you are using GPS, 516 S. 39th St. should get you to the parking lot. Check signs in the lot to make sure you’re parking in 15S (Students) rather than 15E (Employees). 15S is on your left.
Directions: From Lot 15S, take a right from 42nd Street on to Dewey Avenue (if coming from the south) or a left (if coming from the north). Proceed East on Dewey Avenue to 39th Street, turn right and proceed into the parking lot. It is about a 3 minute walk to CON. There is quite a bit of on-campus construction with some closed sidewalks. The best walking route would be to walk back to Dewey Avenue and then come down the hill toward 42nd Street.
Map: Here is map showing the College of Nursing building and Parking Lot 15. If you need assistance, please call us at (402) 559-4110.
