The National Association of College Admission Counseling (NACAC) will hold its annual college fair on Saturday, March 23, from 12 p.m.- 3 p.m. at the Charlotte Convention Center.  Although this FREE event may appear to be geared towards high school students, it can also provide a great opportunity for middle school students to begin thinking of their future as well. 

During the college fair,  students will have a chance to attend informative breakout sessions, speak with hundreds of college and university representatives from across the country, get answers about the college application process, financial aid, and so much more.   Students can even register and get connected with colleges and universities that best match their interests!
