Representatives from two-year and four-year colleges, nursing schools, business schools and trade schools will participate in the 2026 Milwaukee National College Fair which will be held on Sunday, September 27 at the Wisconsin State Fair Park. 

The College Fair is a timesaving opportunity for students and parents to gather a lot of information at one time. In addition to inquiries about course offerings and majors, students and parents can ask questions about campus life, sports teams, clubs and other student activities. College reps may also provide detailed information regarding financial aid.

Review the list of participating colleges and make a list of the booths you’d like to visit. To make the best use of your time at the Fair, visit nacacfairs.org/ncf to register for a personal bar code. When you visit the college booths, the reps will scan your bar code, automatically accessing your information. This will leave you more time to engage in one-on-one conversation. You can also use the computers provided at the convention site, but be aware that lines may be long at the registration tables. Your goal is to have as much time as possible to talk with the reps at their booths.
