A Minnesota Education Fair for all high school students and their parents will be held at Northland Community and Technical College – Thief River Falls campus on Tuesday, September 22, from 9:00 – 11:00 a.m. in the gymnasium. The NCTC College Fair is one of the largest college fairs in the state.

This fair provides students and parents on opportunity to explore a variety of options for continued education, technical training or military service after high school. Representatives from over 60 educational institutions from Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, Iowa, Wisconsin, and Manitoba will be available to answer questions and provide important information for post-high school planning. Structured like a trade show, students and parents will be free to look at various displays and speak to those schools, colleges, and organizations that interest them. Last year, over 900 students from area high schools were in attendance.

Northland’s College Fair is sponsored by the Minnesota Association for College Admission Counseling (MACAC), the same group that hosts the successful National College Fair each fall in Minneapolis. Admission is free. Students should contact their high school counselor for further information.
