Students and parents are invited to dive into the college search process at the Jacksonville National College Fair, held on Saturday, October 13, 2018 at the Prime F. Osborn III Convention Center in Jacksonville, FL.
The event, sponsored by the National Association for College Admission Counseling (NACAC) and hosted by the Southern Association for College Admission Counseling (SACAC), is free and open to the public.
Attendees will have the opportunity to meet one-on-one with admission representatives from public and private colleges and universities, including some international institutions. Both two- and four-year schools will be featured.
Complete information about the fair, including free student registration, can be found online at www.nacacfairs.org.
Participants will receive tips on how to navigate the college-selection process, and learn more about admission requirements, financial aid, course offerings and campus life.
“Students and parents can discuss individual needs with college experts at the fair’s counseling center”, said Greg Ferguson, NACAC Executive Director of National College Fairs Programs and Services.
“As the process of applying to and selecting a college becomes more and more competitive and complex, students and parents need all the help and information they can get,” Ferguson said. “The resources and opportunities provided by National College Fairs are invaluable.”
Now in its 45th year, the National College Fair program annually helps more than 675,000 students and families nationwide explore their options for higher education, making it one of the most visible college recruitment tools in the country. NACAC sponsors 63 National College Fairs across the U.S.
