HOW TO SIGN UP

  3.  Create a free profile on connectED 
  4.  Attend Fair in ‘VIRTUAL FAIR‘ tab

You can support your student to prepare for this event by…

  • Talking to them about their priorities for university/college and yours (i.e. budget, location, program/major)
  • Review the list of participating universities and make a plan for the fair
  • Prepare your questions and create a place to keep all the information you receive

For the virtual fair, 45 universities from 12 different countries, including several Top 100 universities, have confirmed their attendance. With a nice mixture of large multi-faculty institutions as well as small-campus universities, there will hopefully be something for everyone in the university list.

Reminder: All sessions are recorded and will be automatically stored on the connectED platform, in case there is a scheduling clash with sessions that run concurrently. Sessions can be watched and rewatched at your own leisure.
