NH Scholars Mini College Fairs
Mini Fairs
Students are encouraged to use the time spent at college fairs wisely. This is a great opportunity to ask the colleges any questions you might have. Not only will you be able to collect brochures and information about the colleges, but you will now have a direct contact at the college…a contact that you can email or call at any time with questions about the college planning and application process. Check out www.VisitNHcolleges.com for more information.
