The College Fair is a great opportunity for students and parents to speak to university, college and technical school representatives. There are over 150 colleges represented at this fair, along with workshops on financial aid and learning about different college options.

 

Come hungry. There will be several San Diego food trucks to satisfy any appetite. The food truck vendors will be donating a percentage of their profits to the Mt.Carmel High School Grad Nite.

 

Parking will be limited. Please make arrangements to carpool or walk. Parking will also be available at Black Mountain Middle School and Sunset Hills Elementary. There will be several school buses to shuttle people from BMMS/Sunset Hills to and from Mt.Carmel High school.

Mt.Carmel High School parking lot flow will be a one-way for purposes of safety and efficiency. Cars coming into the parking lot will enter from Sundevil Way and will exit from the parking lot onto Carmel Mountain Rd.

 

PUSD high school students and their parents are invited to attend our college fair. There will be college readiness events for middle school students and their parents in the spring of 2013
Colleges interested in participating in the 2012 PUSD College Fair should contact Charmaine Quidachay coordinator@pusdcollegefair.org.
