Part one of the fair will take place from 9am -12pm and part two is from 6pm - 8pm. Please click here for additional information. As I mentioned before, NACAC will be piloting a combined National College Fair (NCF), STEM, and Performance Visual Arts (PVA) fair. There will be representatives from all of these areas.
Pre-registration: In an effort to help students engage with colleges better, NACAC has partnered with GoToCollegeFairs - a digital platform that allows students to share their information with colleges in a more meaningful way. Students must register for the event beforehand on the NACAC Website. Once the student is registered they will receive a barcode which can be printed or saved to their phone. Students will need to bring that barcode with them in order to participate in the fair.
List of Colleges: We currently have 200 colleges from all over the United States, Europe, and Canada. Click here for a live list of colleges that will be attending.
