College Fairs

Now that we have passed the #PHSfit college fair, let's talk about two college exploration opportunities in the near future, the CCBC/BCPS College Fair, and CollegeWeekLive.

CCBC/BCPS College Fair
At this event cosponsored by the local community college and our school district, over a hundred college admissions representatives from colleges as far away as Hawai'i will be on-hand to provide information and answer questions. This is a two-night event, with CCBC-Essex being the site on March 4, and CCBC-Catonsville being the site on March 5. In both cases, the event lasts from 6 to 8pm, parking is free and plentiful, and the location will be clearly designated (the largest building on campus, the athletic/wellness center).
All families are invited to attend and BCPS school counselors will be on-hand to lend their expertise if you have any questions. To prepare, you are advised to print the list of suggested questions to ask at a college fair, from this blog's college planning page. Also, it will be helpful to print off several pages of labels with the following information:

  • Student's first and last names
  • Student's phone number and email address
  • Student's mailing address
  • Student's intended major (it's okay to be undecided!)
