Free Fair to Help Students Explore College Options

Students and parents are invited to dive into the college search process at the Omaha National College Fair, (www.nacacfairs.org) held on Saturday, October 21 from 1-4:00 p.m. at the CenturyLink Center Omaha.

The event, sponsored by the National Association for College Admission Counseling (NACAC) and hosted by the Great Plains Association for College Admission Counseling (GPACAC), is free and open to the public. Attendees will receive tips on how to navigate the college-selection process, and learn more about admission requirements, financial aid, course offerings and campus life. They will also 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.
