College Fairs

Students in grades 9-12 will attend the Northside College Fair on Tuesday, September 27th. Approximately 40 representatives from colleges and universities will be on campus to provide information and answer questions.


This event is for students only.

Each grade level will have 30-45 minutes to speak with representatives. You will not have time to speak to each representative, so please review the list below and determine which colleges you are most interested in speaking with at the fair.

It is recommended that students bring information labels to the fair. Most colleges ask students to complete contact cards. To save time, make labels that can be attached to the contact cards. Labels should include the basics: name, address, e-mail, phone number, school name and code (Northside Christian Academy-340681), your year of graduation (e.g., 2017), and your intended major (if you know). This will save you from having to print the same information over and over and over again. 

Parents are invited to attend the National Christian College Fair at Charlotte Christian with you child on September 26th (www.myblueprintstory.com).

Please prepare for both fairs by creating a list of questions that are important to you when choosing a college. You will find a list of sample questions below. You should also research the colleges that interest you ahead of time by viewing their website. You may impress a rep by saying, "On your website I noticed...," followed by a question.

If you are attending the National Christian College Fair you should dress to impress! Gentlemen should wear a polo or button down shirt with khaki or dress pants. Ladies, a blouse with slacks or a dress would be appropriate. Tuesday is picture day at Northside, so please dress nicely for both the pictures and the fair.
We have many other reps visiting our campus during the school day over the next couple months. Visiting reps will be listed in the Daily News and on the guidance blog (link in the Sneak Peek each Friday).

I look forward to hearing about your experiences at the fairs
