College Quest, a college information night, will take place on Thursday, September 22, 2020 from 5:00 pm to 7:30 pm. This FREE community event is open to everyone and is designed so that north state students and their families can explore higher education opportunities. The event will be held in a virtual format this year and can be accessed through the Events tab on the College OPTIONS website (www.collegeoptions.org). Representatives from over 100 colleges and universities from across the US will be available in their “booths” to showcase the unique features of their institutions. At least 4 regional community colleges will be part of the event as well. Access the College Quest webpage to see the list of planned participants. Local organizations will be on hand to assist families in planning for college, including where to find scholarships to help with college costs. Additionally, there will be representatives from the military, the local library and local trade schools participating. There will also be a financial aid workshop presented by College OPTIONS staff from 5:30 pm to 6:30 pm. This is a great way for students and parents to get a taste of many different colleges and universities without having to leave their home.
