Preference points, computed from published point-level pools. A dash means Nebraska Game and Parks Commission did not publish a count for that level. How we compute these.
What it costs (2026 resident fees)
Building enough points to draw takes about 5 years at $7 for each year you miss — about $106 in all, with the $71 you pay the year you draw.
Not applying this year? A point-only purchase costs $22 and keeps you moving toward the 5-point cut.
Next application window: opens Jun 1, closes Jun 12, 2027 (expected) · results ~June 19. Last cycle's schedule rolled forward — confirm when the agency publishes.
Point creep & years to draw
Drew out at 5 → 4 → 4 → 5 → 5 points (2022–2026): +0.0 points/yr (range +0.0 to +1.0). Projecting that pace forward:
| Your points now | Years until a sure thing |
|---|---|
| 0 | 5 yrs (5–∞) |
| 1 | 4 yrs (4–∞) |
| 2 | 3 yrs (3–∞) |
| 3 | 2 yrs (2–∞) |
| 4 | 1 yr (1–∞) |
| 5 | now |
A projection of the last five draws' median creep (capped at 2 points/yr), not a forecast. Random-pass odds still apply every year you're below the cut.

How to read these numbers
Every percentage on this page is a prior-draw probability: the chance an applicant with that many points would have drawn in the draw year shown, computed from the agency's published results. It is not a forecast — quotas, applicant numbers, and point creep change every year. Where a state does not publish a number, we show a dash, never a zero. Under five tags the percentage is flagged: one applicant either way swings it. Fees show the fee year used. Read the methodology for the engine details.
Not an application service
Draw rules, quotas, fees and deadlines are set by each agency and change by commission action. Check the agency's site and apply there; we don't take applications.
