Unique NYC Public High Schools College Fair

Dear Juniors,

Muhlenberg College

The Unique NYC Public High Schools College Fair is just a week away!!  I can't wait for you to meet the Admission Representatives from the awesome colleges that will be attending.  It's a fantastic event and I am sure each of you will have a great time, as well as learn so much about what these colleges have to offer.  My prediction is that you will return to ICE full of ideas about where you will want to spend your college years.

 You will be walking over to the fair right after school next Thursday, April 25th.  The fair lasts until 5:30, plan to stay for the entire time.  When you arrive it will be quite crowded, but the crowd will thin and it will be easier for you to approach a variety of tables and speak with the Admissions Representatives.

Visit the Unique NYC High Schools College Fair website http://www.uniquenyccollegefair.org to help you prepare. Which of the colleges listed would you like to know more about?  Take some time and research on your own.  Then your questions can be specific and lead you to a college that is a good fit.  Bring a small notebook so you can record helpful information.   

Pick up business cards from 4 colleges that you find interesting, and that you may consider applying to next year.  Having this college contact information can be quite helpful over the summer and during the application process.

Some things you might want to find out when you are speaking with the Admissions Representatives--  do their colleges conduct interviews?   require the  SAT/ACT?
what about the SAT II's?  can you travel to the college via public transportation?  what is the average financial aid package?
