Midland University is located in Fremont, Nebraska, approximately 35 miles northwest of Omaha along the Platte River. The private liberal arts institution, founded in 1883 by Lutheran settlers, operates from a suburban campus spanning 33 acres. The university maintains a structured academic environment with programs in business, education, nursing, and performing arts, while also offering pre-professional tracks in healthcare fields. Midland houses students in four residential halls and operates as an NCAA Division III school, though its competitive dance and powerlifting programs compete at higher levels and have earned national recognition. The institution provides a 4-year graduation guarantee program for students who meet specific academic requirements.
