On the surface, college fairs are a face-to-face, quick meetings that are designed to have the college market themselves to students. But they can also be an opportunity to share who you are with a college. Making a good impression is never a waste of time.
Here are two local opportunities to get your college groove on:
- Athens Area PROBE College Fair- September 6th 6 pm to 8 pm. All grade levels are invited and encouraged to attend this event where over 120 colleges from around the United States will be available to answer questions for parents and students. Admission is free, and if you wanna take up the cool factor a notch, click here and follow the directions. By completing this registration and printing off a bar code, you will keep yourself from having to write your name and address at every table you stop at. You will be glad you did!
- Walton County PROBE College and Career Fair- September 7th 9 am to 1 pm. 11th and 12th grade students who complete the permission form will be taken via bus to this college and career fair for the students of Walton County. Participants should dress for success at this event. To gain more access to this event, please visit http://wcprobefair.weebly.com/.
Last, I would like to give you some tips and great questions to ask at a college fair that will maximize your time.
