 Important Reminders Regarding College Fair Registration:

  • The cost of registration does not include the StriveScan costs for names. If you’d like to use StriveScan to capture student names please be sure to buy StriveScan credits.

  • Communication regarding the fairs will be sent to the person listed as the attending representative. If the attending representative transitions from your office, it is the Key Contact's responsibility to unlink him/her from your online organizational profile and inform us at [email protected], so we can delete the name.

  • The Key Contact may submit the form for the attending representative. The Key Contact is responsible for updating all staff membership information on the web site. 
  • Institutions/organizations who sign up for our fairs receive an institutional membership as part of the package. You do NOT have to submit a separate membership form. Please make sure any new staff members are aware of this, too, so they don’t unnecessarily sign up for membership.

  • As has always been the case, there is a copy of the registration submission housed under the online organizational profile, accessible by the Key Contact for the organization.

  • Organizations must register by the deadline to participate.

 

Iowa ACAC is switching to StriveScan for college fair scanning. 

Iowa ACAC is pleased to announce we have partnered with StriveScan to bring their student barcode scanning technology to our college fairs starting in the spring. StriveScan will make the experience more efficient and productive for students and colleges, plus provide Iowa ACAC and the fair organizers with valuable data about the events.

StriveScan is used at college fairs around the country, including by other NACAC affiliates including Illinois, Missouri, Great Plains, Rocky Mountain, Pacific Northwest, Western, Missouri, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Hawaii ACACs, plus the Colleges That Change Lives, Jesuit Excellence Tour, Montana Post Secondary Educational Opportunities Council, and Linden Tours. More than 2,000 colleges have used StriveScan at hundreds of college fairs around the country and in 68 different countries.

More information is available under StriveScan Barcode Scanning.
