The Consulate General of Canada in Boston is organizing two Canadian "College Fairs" this fall. Guidance counsellors, students and parents will be invited to attend all sessions. Each institution will have a table and space for a representative(s) and promotional materials. Past fairs in Boston have attracted from 50-100 visitors.

The Consulate has identified and secured venues in Newton, MA and Tewksbury, MA and will promote the event through its counsellor contracts at local high schools and local Canadian university and college alumni contacts.

The New England Association for College Admission Counselling will also be holding counsellor fairs in the area in the days surrounding the fair in Manchester, NH and Fairfield, CT.

The New England Canadian University and College Fairs are an excellent opportunity to promote study and research in the U.S. The U.S. is a promising market for Canadian education institutions, presenting great opportunity for Canada through both student recruitment and educational partnerships.
