Where are we going? That’s a hard question. College teaches you better than anything that life happens. If you are lost or if you just want confirmation that you are on the right path, Lone Star College-Kingwood will enlighten the way with their annual Transfer Fair.
“This transfer fair will give students and the public an opportunity to shop around, examine several options, collect transfer materials, speak with a representative and make a decision on what school suits their needs” said Nicole Keenan, director of admissions and outreach.

On March 9 in the Student Conference Center (SCC), the Transfer Fair hosted universities from all across the state. Universities such as, University of Texas at San Antonio, Texas A&M University, Lamar University, University of Houston, Concordia University, Sam Houston and more, were in attendance.
Marim Hakem, a third year student, is planning to transfer to the University of Houston and she said this event helped her learn more about the university and realize the benefits of staying close to home.
More than 25 universities attended LSC-Kingwood. With so many options available, it gives students a chance to explore and learn about new universities. Financial Aid experts were available to advise students about scholarships and Transfer helpers were giving advice on the spot.
“This event helped me learn more about universities and keep my options open” said Gabrielle Henley, first year student.
Maybe we don’t know where we are going but this event definitely helped LSC-Kingwood students clear up their options and open some new possibilities.
