StriveScan is partnering with state and regional professional organizations nationwide to create virtual opportunities to replace in-person college fairs.
StriveScan offers two different program formats:
1. StriveScan’s Virtual College Exploration
A multi-week program with dozens of panel presentations on college knowledge topics or affinity groups of colleges, as well as individual college information sessions. This comprehensive program provides students with a wealth of college search information and allows each institution to provide a full information session.
2. StriveScan’s 6×6 Virtual College Fair
Similar to an in-person fair, students get exposure to a wide variety of colleges in a short amount of time. Typically hosted over a three-hour period in a single day or evening, StriveScan’s 6×6 Virtual College Fair format consists of six colleges each presenting for six minutes. More details
