Tusculum College Hosts College Fair

Over forty colleges and universities set up information booths under one roof as Tusculum College hosted a regional college fair on Wednesday, Sept. 16, in Alpine Arena.

Many colleges within a 300-mile radius of Greeneville were represented at the fair, including all of the South Atlantic Conference colleges except Catawba College. Nearby East Tennessee State University and Walters State Community College were also present at the fair as well as private and public universities from the Nashville area and as far away as West Virginia.

In addition to having access to information from each of the colleges, students learned about financial aid from Tusculum College financial aid officers and federal student support services from TRIO program representatives.

Over 600 students attended, made up of home-schooled students as well as juniors and seniors from Washington College Academy, each of the county high schools, and Greeneville High School. Tusculum College provided buses from each of the county high schools.
