Lake County Fall College Fair

Lakeland Community College is proud to announce the Lake County Fall College Fair, held in the Athletic and Fitness Center on Lakeland Community College's campus.

We invite dozens of schools from Ohio and surrounding states to participate in this free on-campus event to help Lake County residents learn more about their options in higher education.

Students and parents will have the opportunity to speak with personnel from participating schools and ask questions about colleges and universities of interest.

3 Tips for Making the Most Out of Your College Fair Visit

Students and their families should prepare a few things before coming to a college fair.

Here are three things we recommend that you do before your visit:

  1. Review the list of attending schools to narrow it down, for example: Big or small? Public or private?
  2. Prepare a list of questions that will help you with your decision:
    • What are the most popular majors?
    • How much is tuition?
    • Are scholarships available?
    • What is the ratio of professors to students?
    • What are the student housing options?
    • What is student life like during the week?
    • During the weekend?
  3. Pre-print address labels that include your name, address, telephone number, high school, and graduation year to stick on request for information cards to eliminate having to re-write your name and address at every table you visit.

Autumn Reynolds Lakeland has been a very enriching and welcoming experience, making way for a great transition from high school to college. My experience here has been incredible so far. The extra clubs and events Lakeland has to offer gives you the chance to experience a college life on a fabulous budget. My biggest piece of advice is to take advantage of everything on campus: the events, the gym, the clubs, the food bank. Go ahead and get out of your comfort zone to try them out.

Mili Jariwala My favorite thing about Lakeland is the perfect balance it offers between academic support and personal well-being. The quiet study areas are great for focused learning, and the gym helps me feel stay fit and energized. The supportive professors and mentors are always there to guide me. Plus, the wide variety of courses offered makes it great place to grown both academically and personally. Mili Jariwala Medical Assisting and Associate of Science
