9/10 graders should attend the Road Ahead Workshop.

Step 3: Select the college tables to visit
Lastly, you will select the colleges you would like to visit by doing some research.
-
Start here, create a list, and cross-reference to see which ones will be at the fair. Each college will have its own table.
-
College visits will be from 11:00 am - 2:00 pm. This is your time to explore!
-
9th-11th graders should consider choosing colleges that they know little about and avoid the very busy tables early where all the “ready to push submit” seniors will be asking their questions.
This is your future! Start to explore …Take the time now to start your college journey and have fun finding your future!
On Fair Day:
-
Present your best self - dress appropriately (clean and modest), smile, make good eye contact, and be polite.
-
Your handshake should be firm, but not overly so.
-
Practice introducing yourself - “hi, my name is (name), I am from (name of school), and I am a (year in school - freshman, sophomore, junior, senior).”
