- Visit NebraskaCollegeFairs.org to register for a barcode. Print the barcode or save it to your smartphone and take it to the fair so college reps can scan your demographic information.
- Arrive Early enough to visit all colleges that interest you.
- Stop by the EducationQuest booth to get free college planning materials and for a bag to collect college view books.
- Come prepared with questions for the college reps:
–What are admission requirements and deadlines?
–How many students attend the school?
–What are the housing options?
–How do I set up a campus visit? And when is the best time to visit?
–Does the school offer academic programs that meet my interests?
–What is the cost of tuition and fees—room and board?
–How do I apply for college-based scholarships?
–What is the last date I can take the ACT and have the score count for admission and scholarship consideration?
–Can freshmen bring cars to campus? What are the parking fees?
- Attend a financial aid program offered during the College Fair.
