KCK Public Schools to hold College Fair Day Tuesday

More than 70 colleges, universities, historically black colleges and universities and military recruiters will participate in Kansas City, Kansas, Public Schools’ College Fair Day.

The annual event will happen from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 4, at Legends Field, 1800 Village West Parkway in Kansas City, Kansas. The event is free to KCKPS students.

College Fair Day allows KCKPS juniors and high school seniors an opportunity to speak directly with college admission representatives and military recruiters about their future aspirations. The event will also enable students to set up interviews, collect literature and learn more about the various financial aid programs available.

The College Fair Day event makes it easier for students to connect with dozens of institutions and learn what best suits their educational needs in a no-pressure and fun environment, according to a district spokesman.

The District’s Diploma+ program coordinates the College Fair Day event. Diploma+ works to better prepare students for their college and post-high school careers.
