College Fair At Marian Catholic To Feature More Than 100 Schools

CHICAGO HEIGHTS, IL — More than 100 colleges and universities will have representatives at Marian Catholic High School in Chicago Heights from 6:30-8 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 8 for a college fair. Marian Catholic is hosting the fair geared toward recruiting high school students in the southeast suburbs that was previously held at Prairie State College.

The West Gym at Marian Catholic will have admission representatives from both in-state and out-of-state institutions including nationally well-known schools like the University of Notre Dame, the University of Iowa and the United States Military Academy at West Point. Students interested in attending the fair should register here.

According to Marian Catholic, the registration process enables a student to share their information easily with colleges via a barcode the student receives in an email and text message. When a college scans the barcode, they will receive the student's information. After the fair, students will then receive an email with the contact information of the colleges that scanned their information.

College admission departments at Bloom High School, Bloom Trail High School, Rich Central High School, Rich East High School and Rich South High School all assisted Marian Catholic in planning the fair.
