Southeast Community College FAQ's
Is Southeast Community College licensed by the Nebraska DMV to offer behind-the-wheel training courses?
Although we include Southeast Community College in our directory of driving schools for Lincoln Nebraska, we cannot make any assurances about whether or not Southeast Community College is licensed by the Nebraska DMV.

Do I have to take a behind-the-wheel training course? Can't my parents just give me my driver training?
There are some states that do permit parents or guardians to provide their teen-aged kids' required behind-the-wheel training in order to obtain a driver's license. However many states do not allow any type of substitution for taking a professionally-taught driver training course. We suggest you contact your state's DMV to find out what the laws are in your state regarding behind-the-wheel training.
I don't know how to drive using a manual-shift. Will Southeast Community College have an automatic-shift car available that I can use for my driver training?
Since you're enrolling in a Lincoln Nebraska behind-the-wheel training class, chances are good that you don't know how to drive either a stick-shift OR an automatic! However, you should let Southeast Community College know what your preference is before enrolling in their behind-the-wheel class. That way you'll know for sure they will accommodate you.
The area in which I live is mostly undeveloped--very few paved roads and mountains are all around. Will Southeast Community College be able to teach me how to drive safely on bumpy terrain as well as in a city or town?
Considering that you live in a remote area, chances are excellent that a local driving school like Southeast Community College will want you to be able to drive safely on unpaved roads and other types of rugged terrain. You may wish to contact Southeast Community College to find out exactly what their behind-the-wheel training course includes before signing up to take their training course.
Are 14-year-olds eligible to apply for a instruction permit in Nebraska?
Although a few states allow teen-agers to begin practicing how to drive at 14, most states have set the youngest age for which to hold an instruction permit at either 15 or 15½. You will need to contact the Nebraska Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) or a certified driving instruction company like Southeast Community College to find out what the minimum age for driving is in Nebraska.
Will I be required to register for both a drivers education classroom or online course and a behind-the-wheel training course in Lincoln Nebraska?
