The University of Nebraska High School had 48 applications submitted for the K.O. Broady Scholarship Fund during the 2026-2027 school year. This scholarship fund makes it possible for UNHS to award scholarships annually to any student interested in furthering their education through UNHS.
The Broady Scholarship Fund has provided over $76,500 to students since its establishment in honor of Dr. Broady in the early 1980s. Dr. Broady was a successful educator who spent his career helping students and teachers first in Nebraska, and ultimately around the world.
This year, UNHS had a wide representation of Broady applications from around the world and was able to select and award scholarship funds to nearly 40% of students who applied. This year's deserving recipients are an accomplished and talented group, including athletes, musicians, STEM scholars, students persevering through health issues, and even a gold medalist at a worldwide science fair, among other impressive accomplishments and qualities. The 18 winning applicants represented the United States (Nebraska and Iowa), South Africa, Philippines, Turkey, and Thailand. Application requirements included three letters of recommendation and any non-UNHS high school transcripts for each student.
