Nevada State University, a four-year public institution, is a member of the Nevada System of Higher Education. Nevada State places a special emphasis on the advancement of a diverse and largely under-served student population. Located on a developing 500-acre campus in the foothills of Henderson, Nevada, the institution was established in 2002 as a new tier in the state system between the research

universities and the two-year colleges. In this role, the university emphasizes high-quality instruction, exemplary service, engaging learning experiences, and innovation as a means to more efficient, effective outcomes in all corners of the campus.

The first New Student Orientation of the summer is officially in the books! 🦂💛

We were excited to welcome our newest Scorpions and their families to campus as they began preparing for the Fall 2026 semester. Throughout the day, students built connections, explored campus resources, and experienced what it means to be part of the Nevada State community. Families also had the opportunity to learn more about campus services, support systems, and the student experience.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for an unforgettable start to the summer!
