Program Highlights
The News Education Expo
The Jang Group publishes leading Urdu and English newspapers in Pakistan. They host an education expo every year held in Lahore, Islamabad and Karachi and draw a very large audience of students interested in higher education. EducationUSA/USEFP maintains a prominent presence at the Expo and is instrumental in reaching motivated and focused students. The Lahore leg of the annual The News Education Expo was held at the Pearl Continental. It was very heavily advertised in the Jang group newspapers and television channel, well organized and well attended. The caliber of students was good. The students were mainly from local public institutions. There were a lot of queries on scholarships and most visitors to the booth asked for detailed information on US college application processes and college search for US institutions.
The EducationUSA South Asia Tour 2012
The EducationUSA South Asia Fair 2012 passed through Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad in April this year. The tour participants were taken to local schools to meet with students and faculty and talk about their institutions. EducationUSA/USEFP and the US Consulate hosted a College Fair for the tour members at the USEFP office in Lahore where all the schools which are a part of our network participated by bringing in their students to meet with the college representatives. The tour was a huge success with the participants vowing to return next year.
