Hey everyone, I'm a junior and I'm planning to attend some virtual college fairs this year. I want to make the most of these events and gather as much valuable information as possible. What are some tips for attending virtual college fairs, and what questions should I be asking? Thanks for your advice!
Hi there! It's great that you're planning to attend virtual college fairs to gather information about different colleges. I have a few tips that might help you make the most of the experience.
First, prepare a list of colleges you're interested in before the fair. Research them and note down any specific questions or concerns you might have about each one. This will help you have focused conversations with college representatives. Things to ask about could include academic programs, campus life, financial aid, scholarships, and application deadlines.
Second, make sure you have a good internet connection and a quiet space to attend the fair. You don't want to miss any important information due to technical issues.
Third, take notes during the conversations to help you remember the information later on.
Lastly, follow up with the representatives you speak to via email to thank them for their time and ask any additional questions that might come up after the fair. Good luck with finding the perfect college fit!
