Admissions and Financial Aid Experts to Offer Live College Financing Advice at Free Online College Fair

CollegeWeekLive, the largest virtual college fair on the Web, will offer students and parents the opportunity this week to interact live and online with a wide range of college planning and financial aid professionals, including admissions counselors, financial aid experts, and advisors from some of the top college financing companies in the industry.

CollegeWeekLive will hold its free online “Paying for College” event on July 10, 2008, and NextStudent will be on-hand to help students with their questions about financial aid, scholarships, and private student loans.

Just like with a brick-and-mortar college fair, students who attend CollegeWeekLive will be able to ask questions, attend live presentations and discussions, and receive financial aid and admissions assistance from college professionals and industry experts. But instead of having to travel across the country or trek through aisles of booths, students will be able to access all participating schools and organizations at the click of a mouse.

CollegeWeekLive’s online format allows students and their parents to browse the virtual booths at their own pace and network with participating schools and financial aid companies in a low-pressure environment with one-on-one interaction.

Students can compare colleges and get an in-depth look at the college application and financial aid process through streaming video keynote presentations from admissions and financial aid experts, interactive Q&A sessions with admissions officials, and real-time video chats with current college students.

Admission to CollegeWeekLive is completely free. To attend, students, parents, or anyone else interested in participating only need to register online at the CollegeWeekLive website, providing some basic profile and contact information.
