Lake Orion High School is excited to announce that we will be hosting our 15th annual College Fair and Information Night on Monday, March 3 beginning at 5:00 p.m. We would like to extend the invitation to our high school students, and their parents, to attend and learn more about a variety of post-secondary opportunities at our MACRAO sponsored event. Currently, we have representatives from approximately 60 colleges, universities, technical / trade schools, and armed forces recruiters that have confirmed their participation – we expect more to confirm in the upcoming weeks.

Students who plan on attending the College Fair are encouraged to register by visiting the provided hyperlinked website below (or by scanning the QRcode on the flier). By registering, students will be provided with a barcode that may be printed, or students can elect to store the barcode electronically on their personal device by taking a screenshot. Possessing the barcode provides students with a streamlined method that allows them to quickly and efficiently share their contact information with admission representatives and institutions that they have interest in. Thus, students will be afforded more time to speak with representatives (rather than filling out prospect cards at each table).

Attached are the Snapcode and hyperlink for student registration, as well as some potential questions that students may be interested in asking admissions representatives.

We look forward to seeing you on March 3, 2025.

Thank you
