High school juniors are looking forward to summer vacation, expecting a few blissful weeks of sun, fun, and relaxation. But before these students pull out their sunscreen, it is time to consider beginning the college search. Students should begin researching and exploring college options by the end of 11th grade – after all, early admissions applications are often due as early as September or October.

One of the best ways to begin a college search is to attend a local college fair, such as the North Texas College Fair that will be held at the end of April in the Dallas area. The North Texas College Fair will allow students and parents the opportunity to meet representatives from several colleges and universities, including Indiana’s Purdue University, Baylor University, Concordia University, Texas A&M (Commerce), Texas State University, Austin College and more.

During this event, students will have the chance to speak directly with college admissions officers. This is an excellent opportunity to find answers to absolutely any college admissions question. Students and parents will be able to learn about different schools, how the college admissions process works, and what colleges really look for in an applicant. The North Texas College Fair will also feature a round-table discussion including all of the college representatives, giving students and parents the chance to hear differing points of view from numerous college reps.

The North Texas College Fair, sponsored by C2 Education, is to be held on Saturday, April 28 from 9 AM to 1 PM. The event will take place at Coppell High School (185 West Parkway Blvd.), located just outside of Dallas-Fort Worth. Both students and parents are encouraged to attend.
