Imagine that you just attended your first college fair. You believe it went very well. You were well-prepared and organized. You talked to all the schools in which you were interested, you learned a lot about each school, and you made a great impression.

What did you do before the fair, during the fair, and after the fair to make it a great success?

Today, you will find out!

A college fair is an event where college admissions representatives come together at a school, community-gathering place, or large convention center to meet one-on-one with high school students (and parents) to talk about their respective colleges and answer questions.

Sometimes held during the day, but more frequently in the evening, reps are usually at tables or in booths, providing handouts and brochures about the campus, academic programs, course offerings, activities, and sports.

Walking into a college fair can be overwhelming, especially if you haven't prepared beforehand.

Explore the resources below for some tips to help you prepare and make the most of your college fair experience.
