Blue Jays and their parents visited with university representatives at Jesuit’s College Fair Night on Sunday, Sept. 29. Colleges showed off their colors throughout the Student Commons, in classrooms on the first floor, and in the cafeteria. Jesuit college guidance staff said roughly 60 sophomores, 165 juniors, and 75 seniors attended with their families.
Representatives from more than 70 institutions (see table below), both domestic and international, spoke with Jesuit students and their parents. Also, a representative from the Louisiana Office of Student Financial Assistance (LOSFA) was on hand to provide information about financing.
This annual event provides a great opportunity for students and parents to visit with multiple college admission representatives and learn in depth information about specific college campuses.
MCJROTC students did a stellar job assisting the college representatives, helping with set up, and directing parking for the event.
