Whether you’re an adult learner headed back to college to advance a new career or a traditional student just trying to figure out which route is best for you, personally…the upcoming Lake Michigan College Night could prove to be an invaluable experience that will be an eye-opener and a money-saver at one and the same time.
Lake Michigan College will host its annual College Night event on Monday, September 25, 2017 from 6 to 7:30pm. Naturally, high school students and their parents are invited to attend the free event to meet with representatives from numerous colleges and universities throughout the Midwest. However, adult students returning to college or attending college for the first time as well as transferring community college students are also invited to attend a rewarding night at the Mendel Center on the Napier Avenue Campus in Benton Harbor.
LMC President Dr. Trevor Kubatzke says, “High school students and those interested in college often lead busy lives, so it can be tough to find time to research and visit colleges. By hosting a number of colleges one night in one location, they can get their questions answered and make informed choices about their college career.”
Invited schools include Andrews University, Central Michigan University, the College for Creative Studies, Ferris State University, Grand Valley State University, Indiana University South Bend, Michigan State University, St. Mary’s College, the University of Michigan, Western Michigan University, and many more. As many as 100 colleges were invited…and by earlier this week there were already more than 50 committed to making the trip to be in attendance on September 25th.
Financial aid workshops will also be held during the event to provide attendees with information about financial aid options and how and when to apply for aid.
The event will be held in the Grand Upton Hall of The Mendel Center, which is located at the college’s Benton Harbor campus. Those who are interested in attending College Night are encouraged to register for the event beforehand, and you can accomplish that task by clicking the link below:
