Miami-Dade County Public Schools (M-DCPS)
experienced a successful return to the in-person National College Fair yesterday,
at the DoubleTree by Hilton Miami Airport Hotel & Convention Center. Thousands of students and parents participated in the
four-hour event where representatives from more than 100 colleges and
universities provided answers to questions regarding admissions, financial aid,
housing, testing requirements and more.

“I am thrilled that students once again had the
opportunity to attend this event in person so they could gather information and
learn about the variety of post-secondary choices that are available to them,”
said School Board Chair Perla Tabares Hantman, who has co-chaired Miami-Dade’s College Fair for more than two decades. As
in previous years, students were able to pre-register to obtain an electronic
ID permitting them to request valuable information from multiple learning
institutions. The National Association for College Admission
Counseling (NACAC) and M-DCPS sponsored the event.

School Board member Dr. Lubby Navarro, Board member Luisa Santos, Board
Chair Perla Tabares Hantman, Schools Superintendent Jose Dotres and Board
member Mari Tere Rojas are joined by Miami Norland Senior High School students at Miami’s 2022 National College
Fair.
