Boston, MA (PRWEB) September 10, 2009
CollegeWeekLive the world's largest college fair, today announced that it is expanding the schedule for its popular online virtual admissions events with a special day designed to connect high school guidance counselors with colleges. The event, to be held on October 8th, will bring together 16,000 high school guidance counselors and admissions representatives from hundreds of colleges across the country. The event will predate CollegeWeekLive's blockbuster Autumn college fair, scheduled for November 4-7, by a month, providing counselors with a unique preview opportunity to better get to know colleges and universities on behalf of their college-bound students.
"High school guidance counselors play a critical role in advising and mentoring students in college admissions," said Robert Rosenbloom, CEO of Platform Q, producer of CollegeWeekLive events. "In response to demand from guidance counselors, we are making our platform available for a special day that will allow these counselors to speak directly with college officials."
CollegeWeekLive Counselor Day is free to register and attend, and offers counselors an opportunity to meet and text or video chat with admissions representatives from hundreds of colleges. CollegeWeekLive Counselor Day will also feature live keynote presentations on topics of interest to counselors from admissions experts, college officials and educational organizations.
CollegeWeekLive has also expanded its annual schedule of online events to help students and their families explore colleges and admissions related topics online in a live environment, saving time and money.
