Admission representatives from Christian colleges across the country will meet with graduating seniors and juniors at the 49th Annual Florida Christian College Fair Circuit hosted at Christian high schools throughout the state in September. Locally, college fairs will be held at the following schools.
- Westminster Christian Academy, Fort Lauderdale; Monday, Sept. 9, 9 – 11 a.m.
- Jupiter Christian School, Jupiter; Tuesday, Sept. 10, 10 – 11:30 a.m.
- Calvary Christian Academy, Fort Lauderdale; Tuesday, Sept. 10, 5 – 6:30 p.m.
They will then continue on to Christian high schools in Naples, Fort Myers, St. Petersburg, Tampa, Clearwater, Seffner, Oviedo, Orlando and Jacksonville.
Colleges with representatives registered to participate in the Christian College Fairs are marked with an asterisk * in the CHRISTIAN COLLEGE GUIDE 2024 on pages 40 to 43.
Donna Payner, College Fair Circuit Coordinator and Director of College Planning at Westminster Academy, said “The purpose of the college fair is to connect Christian students from covenant families to Christian colleges where they can continue their education in a place that’s teaching biblical worldview.”
At Westminster Academy students are sent down from their classes to attend the college fair. Sheridan Hills Christian School, Boca Raton Christian School and Highlands Christian Academy bring their juniors and seniors to Westminster Academy to participate. Homeschool students are welcome to attend; however, they need to contact the guidance counselor at the host school in advance to gain access.
Since college fair representatives are often the ones making admission decisions, it is important that students prepare by considering what characteristics they desire in a university and researching colleges in advance, so they can ask good questions.
