Top Five reasons to attend a virtual meeting with a college or University admissions office.
- Get the scoop on everything you need to know to apply for admission and financial aid.
- Small group interaction allows you to ask questions, get to know what they offer, and share your interests. You may discover a college or University that you had not considered before and learn that it could be a great fit for you.
- It’s a great opportunity to ask for an application fee waiver. Admissions reps may have a waiver code or be willing to look for your application submission and waive the fee when you attend a meeting with them. Definitely ask!
- Meeting with a the college admissions representative demonstrates your interest and may give you a small boost in the application process.
- Occasionally the meeting may include current students and that gives you a great opportunity to learn what it’s like to be a student at the college or University.
