Why meet students online?

Today's student relies on the Internet the way previous generations relied on newspapers, radio, libraries and television for information.  Unlike their parents who grew up with one-way information feeds, net generation students expect to engage in two-way communication.  Social network sites, e-zines, blogs and a variety of feedback forums provide interacive access for both socializing and gathering information.                                                          

 Virtual Online Fairs

At Green College Tour, we host Friday Online Fairs where thousands of high school students are making their first contact with college admission counselors.  By engaging in one-on-one chat sessions, taking virtual campus tours and attending live video streamed presentations, students are connecting with many excellent lesser-known institutions.
