Exhibitor registration opens Tuesday, July 1, 2025.
“Probe College Fairs offer a unique chance for college representatives to connect authentically with prospective students in local Georgia communities,” said Clinton Hobbs, Probe’s executive director. “In a time when digital interactions and social media dominate, in-person conversations are unmatched in influencing students’ academic journeys.”
Hobbs continued, “The Probe College tour offers students from the north Georgia mountains to the coast and everywhere in between access to postsecondary opportunities.”
Last fall, over 30,000 Georgia high school students pre-registered to attend a Probe fair in their local communities.
Colleges that sign up for the tour can gain access to the Probe Partners Program. Partners share their Georgia student inquiry data with Probe to promote the tour. Plus, partners receive contact information for all registered students, in addition to students who scan at their tables.
