College Fair at Tusculum College to feature regional colleges and universities

Tusculum College will offer high school students and their parents the opportunity to explore higher education options during the Greeneville-Greene County College Fair on Wednesday, Aug. 30.

The annual event will be held from 9 to 11 a.m. in the Pioneer Arena in the Niswonger Commons on the Greeneville campus, and there is no admission charge.

Participating in the event will be a wide variety of colleges and universities as well as vocational schools. Each institution has a display providing information about its academic programs. Most also have representatives on hand to answer specific questions about programs or the school.

In previous years, approximately 40 colleges, universities, technical schools and the military had displays at the College Fair, and the participants included schools from Georgia, Kentucky, North Carolina, Virginia and across the State of Tennessee. A similar number and range of exhibitors are expected for this year’s event.

The College Fair, coordinated by the Tusculum College Office of Admission, has grown in size in recent years, and the department is appreciative of the opportunity to bring this service to area students and their families.

Students planning to attend the event are requested to visit www.gotocollegefairs.com to preregister. Preregistration will provide the opportunity to scan in contact information that can be used during the event to avoid having to fill out multiple forms. More information may be found on the website.

The event is represented on the official Tennessee Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers calendar.
