SERF will once again bring together prospective students and representatives from a diverse selection of colleges, universities, and gap year programs from across the US, as well as international programs. Industry professionals will also present a series of topical seminars throughout the afternoon to help attendees learn more about navigating the college application process, financing a college education, choosing the right school, and more. We are pleased to welcome back Marty O'Connell, author of Colleges that Change Lives, as the event's keynote speaker, who will share her wisdom about embarking on the college search process.
