Education is the Key to the Future
The Latino College Expo (LCE) is your gateway to meeting admissions representatives from over 50 public and private colleges, universities and community-based organizations. Founded in 1990, LCE’s mission has been to “elevate the educational aspirations of the Latino community and all youth”. What makes this event so unique and groundbreaking is the focus on building a stronger partnership between a student and their parents/guardians, and counselors. When those partnerships are strengthened and realized, the daunting process of finding and affording college will be minimized and success outcomes will be maximized.
The Expo is comprised of many colleges and universities, New York City Community Based Organizations, and “Ask the Counselor” tables. Bring your school transcripts, test scores and list of extracurricular activities if you’d like to talk one-to-one with a college advisor. “Ask the Counselor” tables will be available in English and Spanish.
You are also welcome to the Leadership Summit prior to the Expo in order to hear information and engage in discussions on various topics that will help prepare you for the college search process.
