The colleges represented that evening will be: Ohio State, Robert Morris, IUP, Penn State, and the University of Rochester.

You will hear answers to questions such as:

• How do I choose the right college?

• What should I say in my essay?

• What admission tests do I need to take and what score do I need (ACT/SAT)?
