Darlington will host its eighth annual College Fair on Tuesday morning, September 18. Representatives from over 50 colleges from around the country will be present to meet with interested students. All Upper School students – freshmen through seniors – will be dismissed from classes from 10:30 a.m. to noon to visit with the admission officers.
“This program has been such a great success with both the students and the college reps for the last few years that we are excited about doing it again – and especially about having it in the new Huffman Center!” said Associate Headmaster and College Dean Sam Moss. “This is a wonderful opportunity for our students to do some ‘window shopping’ at colleges they are not familiar with, as well as to learn more about colleges they are already interested in. It is also a great chance for our students to make a good impression of themselves and Darlington with the admission officers.”
Previous fairs have drawn many favorable comments from our visitors. College representatives have been uniformly complimentary about the Darlington students they spoke with and the good impression they had of Darlington as a result of those conversations, according to Moss. All students are urged to take advantage of this opportunity in their college planning.
