College Fair Tips
1. Visit NebraskaCollegeFairs.org to register for a barcode. Print the barcode, or save it to your smartphone, and take it to the fair so college reps can scan your demographic information.
2. Arrive early enough to visit all colleges that interest you.
3. Stop by the EducationQuest booth to get free college planning materials and for a bag to collect college view books.
4. Come prepared with questions for the college reps:
- What are admission requirements and deadlines?
- Does the school offer academic programs that meet my interests?
- What is the cost of tuition and fees — and room and board?
- How do I apply for college-based scholarships?
- How many students attend the school?
- What are the housing options?
5. Attend a financial aid program offered during the College Fair.
