More than 100 colleges and universities will flock to La Roche’s Kerr Fitness and Sports Center on Oct. 4 for the North Pittsburgh College Fair from 6 p.m. till 10 p.m. Touted as one of the largest college fairs in Western Pennsylvania, the event will give high school students and their families a chance to meet with representatives from universities, colleges and technical schools from around the country.
An open house slated for Nov. 13 will include presentations from academic departments, admissions and financial aid. Students and their families will have the opportunity to interact with faculty and explore academic programs and more.
