AGENDA
CollegeWeekLive gives students and parents the opportunity to compare college information and learn more about the college application process. CollegeWeekLive will offer two days of live keynotes and chats. Over the course of the fair, you can attend live video sessions with admissions experts covering a wide array of important admissions topics. You can also participate in video chats with current college students to compare college information from over 200 schools across the US. We also offer career panels to show students interesting ways in which recent college graduates used their degrees. And of course, you can visit our virtual booths to compare college features throughout the course of the fair. Come and go as you please, and compare colleges from the comfort of your home PC.
The agenda is constantly being updated and speaker times are subject to change. Check back soon to view the most recent version of the March 2008 show!
