KARACHI: Ball Room of Hotel Mövenpick here is the venue where 33* US universities converged to promote higher education opportunities for Pakistani students.
Occasion is the 2-day US College Fair starting from today. The 13th biannual South Asia Tour provided Pakistani students, parents, counselors, and local university officials from Sindh with an opportunity to explore a wide array of academic programs and receive first-hand guidance on applying for admission.
Consul General of USA JoAnne Wagner, who had taken a keen interest in each and every stall, held: “We are fortunate to have representatives from over thirty-three American colleges and universities here today to recruit local students. That’s the most that have visited Pakistan in recent years, and it shows that our colleges realize how many excellent students there are in Pakistan. The institutions represented here also showcase the diversity of American higher education. No matter your interests, you can find a good match among our thousands of excellent colleges and universities.”
