Step 1: Sign up
- Sign up for an OUEvents Pass so you can visit universities as soon as you get to the Regional Fair.
- Your OUEvents Pass is a personalized QR code that allows you to instantly share your contact information with the universities that you’re interested in.
- After the Regional Fair, you will receive more personalized information about programs, events, scholarships and more from the universities who scanned your Pass.
Step 2: Plan how you will get there
- Refer to the map included for each event in the Regional Fairs schedule, including parking information (where available).
- If you take public transit, check for any service updates and plan alternative routes if you need to.
- Give yourself plenty of time to arrive at the venue, park, find the event location (e.g., if it is on a university campus or inside a high school).
- Planning some extra time for your visit will help ensure you get to speak to all the universities you are interested in.
Step 3: Pack lightly
Regional Fairs can be busy events with a lot of people. Be mindful of your belongings and leave your valuables at home.
Step 4: Decide which universities you want to connect with
- Visit OUInfo to learn more about Ontario’s universities – like which universities offer the programs you’re interested in – to help you decide which universities you want to connect with at the event.
- Prepare questions to ask.
Step 5: Have your OUEvents Pass ready to go
Take your OUEvents Pass to the Regional Fair on your mobile device or print it out on paper. When you are at the event, ask a university representative to scan your OUEvents Pass. The university will follow up with personalized information about their university.
Tip: Save your OUEvents Pass to the lock screen on your phone.
