Designed for rising seniors and their families, this interactive event helps students feel more confident, prepared, and excited about the college-going process.
In partnership with Butler University, Hendricks College Network is bringing together colleges, resources, and hands-on admissions experiences all under one roof as students begin preparing for senior year, college applications, and the Common App.
Case Study Night | 6:00-6:55 PM
Students and their adult(s) will step into the role of a college admissions committee by reviewing mock applications and school profiles to make admission decisions for prospective students.
Guided by college representatives, participants will gain insight into what colleges consider during the admissions process and what makes an application stand out.
Mini College Fair | 7:00-8:00 PM
Continue the evening by connecting face-to-face with admissions representatives from 15+ colleges and universities. Students can explore different campus options, ask questions, and begin building their college list while learning what to look for throughout the college search process.
