How to Use an Education Fair
The U.S. Education Fair will provide you with innumerable opportunities to connect
with representatives from U.S. colleges and universities that are actively seeking
students just like you. For many of you who cannot visit the colleges you are interested
in, this is your chance to learn first-hand about the particular schools, and for the
representatives to meet and learn a bit about you!
Please register on the fair platform. On the platform you may add information to share
with representatives of U.S. colleges and universities.
Take a few minutes to review the school booths and webinar agenda. Formulate
questions that will give you information that is useful in your search. This can be done
before even visiting online fair, but as you become engaged in this process, you will
think of many more questions.
Don’t be afraid. Approach representatives and ask questions. If you feel embarrassed
at first, observe others. The representatives who are at the fair are skilled in helping
students get started.
Keep an open mind. With over four thousand colleges and universities in the U.S., it is
impossible to know about all of them. The education fair gives you an opportunity to
learn something new about a school you would have never considered.
After the Fair. After the fair, talk with your parents about what you learned, perhaps
even make some notes in a journal while your thoughts are fresh. If you were especially
impressed with a college, you may want to follow up with the representative. You may
contact that person via email, telephone or regular mail.
Sample Questions to Ask College Representatives:
What is the ratio of students to faculty?
How accessible are professors outside of class?
How active is your international student affairs office and what programs do they
offer throughout the year?
What do students like most about college? Like least?
What are the dominant social groups on campus?
What are the most popular/famous programs on campus?
What might students do on a typical weekend?
What housing opportunities are available (on-campus dormitories, apartments, co-
ops, off-campus housing)?
What is the graduation rate? What is the graduation rate for international students?
What kind of career services are available for international students?
Do you offer deferred admissions?
Can international students work on campus?
