New York City National College Fair
Colleges are Eager to Meet High School Students Virtually
Some Spring 2022 National College Fairs continue to use a Virtual Platform. With in-person events limited across the country, college admissions offices are eager to connect with sophomores, juniors and seniors who are looking toward postsecondary education.
Virtual College Fairs, sponsored by the National Association for College Admission Counseling (NACAC), are a timesaving opportunity for students and parents to gather a lot of information in one day. College admissions representatives will be online to answer key questions ranging from acceptance policies to student–faculty ratio.
NACAC’s Virtual College Fairs are one-day events that are free to attend. These interactive events are designed with the mobile user in mind. Students can login from their phones or computers. Students and parents are invited to attend one or all of these online events. Approximately 200 college and university representatives will be online and available to answer questions. Students and parents will also be able to schedule one-on-one virtual meetings.
