SUMMARY:2024 La Crosse Education Fair - La Crosse Expo Center
DESCRIPTION:Wisconsin Education Fairs is excited to offer Wisconsin wide College Fairs. Students\, families\, and school counselors will have access to over 100 colleges\, universities\, military branches\, and specialty schools. Chat with representatives\, meet other students and narrow down your college search. \nWisconsin Education Fairs provide easy access to information about postsecondary options on a timely basis for all Wisconsin citizens\, regardless of geographic location. \nWEF includes in its participant list all UW state universities and centers\, Wisconsin’s independent colleges and universities\, Wisconsin technical colleges\, and many out-of-state institutions. In addition\, many community colleges\, trade schools\, and the national service organizations\, such as the armed forces are represented \nDon’t know where to start? Consider the following before attending an Education Fair: \n\nWhat are your career goals?\nHow far from home are you willing and able to go?\nWhat size campus would you strive in?\nWill financial aid and scholarships be available?\n\nNext while at the fair. Use your time wisely by showing demonstrated interest….meaning\, go up to a school you are interested in and bring a list of questions to ask booth representatives. \nConsider asking some of these: \n\nTell me about your most popular programs. What makes them so popular?\nWhat are your application deadlines and how much to apply?\nWhat do students like most about your school?\nWhat is the biggest complaint from current students?\nWhat kinds of students are happiest at your school?\nWhat is your admission criteria?\nTell me about your campus location.\nHow does your career planning department compare to other colleges/universities?\nCan you give me the names of a few students whom I could talk to about their experience at your school?\nWhat is the average total cost—including tuition and fees\, books and supplies\, room and board\, and other estimated expenses—for the first year?\nWhat percentage of students graduate with debt?\nWhat is the average amount of student loan debt for graduates?\nAre there on-campus work opportunities for work-study students? What if I don’t quality for a work-study job?\nIf I am awarded a grant\, can I expect it to remain constant all four years (assuming my financial circumstances don’t change)?\n\nAll the representatives are excited to chat and meet with you. It can be a little awkward on where to start if you’re not prepared for the fair. Hope this helps get you pointed in the right direction. \nREGISTER BEFORE YOU GO TO THE FAIR!\nStudents attending the fairs go to the registration page at www.StriveFair.com and fill out a quick form on their phone or computer (in advance or at the door). When they sign up\, StriveScan sends them a barcode via text message and email. The next day\, students receive an email with a report on all of the colleges and representatives they met along with their contact information and social media profiles. There is no cost for students. \nDon’t forget to pre-register your personal information online! Sign up for a barcode at strivefair.com.
