Western New England University will host a college fair sponsored by the New England Association for College Admission Counseling (NEACAC), on Sunday, September 15, from 3:00 to 5:00 p.m. in the Alumni Healthful Living Center. Representatives from more than 140 colleges and universities will be available to speak with high school students and their parents, about their respective institutions and the college admission process.

Prior to the start of the fair, Western New England University will host a free 45-minute College and Financial Aid Awareness workshop beginning at 2:00 p.m. also in the Center for the Sciences and Pharmacy (CSP). "This workshop will give parents and students a great introduction into the entire college search and financial aid process, a process that can get confusing," remarked Bryan Gross, vice president for enrollment management and marketing at Western New England University. No registration is required to attend the free workshop.

All high school students are encouraged to attend the largest college fair to be held in western Massachusetts this fall. A list of all the college that have confirmed attendance at this time can be found at wne.edu/become-a-student/visit/college-fair.
