Are you a high school student who is thinking of attending college after graduating? Do you want to find out which colleges offer the majors you intend to study? If you want to find out more about student life, then visit a college fair.

Learn how college can help you to achieve your life and career goals. If you want to discuss your next move, then it’s important to start visiting the college fairs. Representatives from all major colleges will be available to discuss course options, financial support as well as all aspects of student life. Details will be available about which degree or major to study.

Your student years are some of the best of your life, so you will want to choose carefully, not only the subject you study but also where you study. After all, you will be spending the next four years of your life at college. Attending college will not only get you a qualification it can help you to improve life skills such as team working, confidence, motivation and multi-tasking. These are important skills that will help when looking for employment opportunities.

There are many things to consider when choosing a college. How far away from home do you want to be? Are you happy to go to a large city college? Or would you be happier at a smaller local college? Also, take into consideration the type of tuition offered. Are field trips part of your course? Do you get to go on work experience? You will be able to find out more about all these details at the college fairs.

Here are the dates and locations for fairs which will be held in the spring of 2016. This year we are running a number fairs in new locations. This will make finding out about studying accessible to more people. So what are you waiting for, start planning your next move!
