(UNDATED) - Hoosier high school students around the state will participate in College Application Day Friday, October 23, 2015.
College Application Day is an event sponsored in partnership with Learn More Indiana and the National American College Application Campaign aimed at increasing the number of students pursuing post-secondary education.
On College Application Day, many Indiana colleges choose to waive application fees as added incentive for students to apply.
"We're telling students that education beyond high school is more important than ever, so we need to do everything we can to make sure they're prepared. College Application Day highlights the importance of higher education and provides information for navigating the application process." Indiana Commissioner for Higher Education Teresa Lubbers said.
While the national event is Oct. 23, Indiana schools are hosting student events throughout the fall season to provide resources and guidance for high school seniors as they consider their post-secondary options and the college admission process. Many of these events happen during the school day and provide students opportunities they may not have otherwise.
