“The importance of attending is to meet college representatives face to face,” Counselor Lisa Fields said. “Students will gain exposure to a variety of post-secondary institutions across the country.”
Students are advised to bring their barcode to present to representatives, as well as a pencil, paper and notepad.
“Students should use this time as an opportunity to do a ‘mini-interview’ with various universities of interest and see it as they are conducting their own ‘mini-interviews,’” Fields said. “Students will receive answers to individual questions in the counseling center as well as learn from experts conducting special interest sessions.”
