Overall Experience I thoroughly enjoyed my time in Nebraska City and would highly recommend the experience to fellow students. It is a wonderful city with a small town feel, however is close enough to Omaha to be a commuter site. The providers enjoy having students and are very receptive to letting you do as much as you feel comfortable with.
