Bridgewater-Raritan High School students filled the gymnasium on Wednesday, October 8, for the annual Fall College Fair ollege fair, an event designed to help students explore postsecondary options and connect directly with college representatives.

A multitude of colleges and universities attended this year’s fair, representing a wide range of academic programs, campus environments, and opportunities. Schools from across the East Coast and beyond lined the gym with information booths, brochures, and representatives eager to answer any questions about majors, financial aid and campus life. 

Among the participating institutions were the University of Pennsylvania, the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, Rutgers University, Penn State, Drew University, and Temple University. In addition to traditional universities, the fair included representatives from The Princeton Review, the U.S. military branches, and La Crème Modeling.

Students eagerly filled the aisles between tables, collecting brochures and swapping advice with friends about potential dream schools.  The conversation and curiosity reflected the energy of students preparing to take their next big step.

For many students, the fair marked the beginning of their college search, while for others, it helped narrow down final decisions before application deadlines. 

Junior Maanvita Konka, shared her remarks on the event.

“It’s great to see so many schools in one place; it makes the whole [college application] process feel less overwhelming.”

The 2025 Bridgewater-Raritan High School Fall College Fair once again demonstrated the school’s dedication to helping students make informed decisions about their future and discover the paths that best fit their goals.
