The Study Texas Virtual Fair 2020, which took place over the weekend, was a huge success! Over 300 students from across the globe - over 40 different nationalities registered - met with Study Texas member institutions for a morning of presentations and Q&A sessions.

Participating university reps said that they had many meaningful conversations with students, and students expressed their satisfaction with having time to ask college reps all their questions. Twenty-six Study Texas members participated in the 3 hour virtual fair, which was conducted entirely on Zoom. Institutions were able to showcase their campuses and programs via a mix of live and recorded presentations, along with an open house-style question & answer session at the end.

The Study Texas board offered the virtual recruitment event this year, because recruitment travel trips are not possible during the COVID pandemic. And, because it is looking like the spring recruitment travel season will be similarly affected, Study Texas will offer another virtual college fair again in the spring. Watch this space - details to come!
