“This is an opportunity for students and parents to meet and speak directly with college representatives throughout the evening, without having to visit various campuses, make telephone calls, or search the web for information,” said Adrienne Skinner, Glen Oaks Director of Admissions.
College representatives will answer questions about the admission process, entrance requirements and programming. Students will have the benefit of exploring higher education options available to them, all in one convenient location.
