COLLEGE FAIR LOCATION

Representatives from approximately 200 colleges, universities, and other postsecondary institutions are expected to participate in the 2027 Bergen County College Fair, scheduled for Tuesday, March 16, at Ramapo College of New Jersey in Mahwah. Organized by the Bergen County Directors of Guidance and Ramapo College, this free event offers students and families an opportunity to explore their educational options and speak directly with college admissions representatives.


The College Fair offers students and families an opportunity to connect directly with admissions representatives from four-year colleges, community colleges, technical schools, and other postsecondary institutions. Students can learn about academic programs, majors, admission requirements, campus life, athletics, student organizations, and financial aid opportunities. The event has also featured financial aid information sessions to help families better understand the college application and financing process.


To make the most of your visit, review the list of participating colleges in advance and identify the schools you'd like to explore. Students are encouraged to register before attending when the event's registration page becomes available. Researching colleges ahead of time and preparing questions about academic programs, scholarships, campus life, and admissions requirements can help make conversations with college representatives more productive.


Be sure to visit schools already on your list, but don't hesitate to explore unfamiliar institutions. With colleges and universities representing a wide range of academic programs, campus environments, and educational opportunities, the Bergen County College Fair is an excellent place to discover schools you may not have previously considered. You may find a college that's an ideal fit for your academic interests, personal goals, and future plans.
