South America EducationUSA Fair 2008

The EducationUSA Fair is an event organized by the EducationUSA Advising Centers in Chile, Peru, Argentina, and Brazil – all affiliated with the US State Department and committed to promoting higher education in the USA. We have organized, promoted and participated in international fairs for many years, and we encourage you to take part in a unique recruiting opportunity that will give your institution maximum exposure to highly qualified South American students interested in pursuing studies in the US.

Why the EducationUSA Fairs?

The event is the only EducationUSA circuit in South America, covering the four major countries that boast the highest concentration of potential students. For a nominal fee, it provides you with a great opportunity to make a head start on your recruiting at a time when students are most alert to events of this nature. While you certainly can send any representative of your choosing to attend your stand, should you decide to participate but cannot attend in person, we will contract and train local alumni and/or staff to work as your representative at the fair. This will mean considerable savings to you in terms of airfare, hotel and meal costs. We will also assume the cost of hiring the local representatives. This is an exclusive offer that we are able to extend to you as EducationUSA Advising Centers. We are proud to announce that our Fair sponsors are the US State Department (Educational Information and Resources Branch), the US Embassies in Chile, Peru, Argentina and Brazil, the Ministries of Education, the Fulbright Commissions, the American chambers of Commerce, and other governmental agencies.
