GALLUP, N.M. 鈥 自慰视频-Gallup will host its annual College Transfer & Scholarship Fair in October with a special visit from the Be Pro Be Proud New Mexico Mobile Workshop.
The fair is scheduled for 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 16, 2024, in Gurley Hall. The event will provide students with opportunities to connect with colleges and universities in one place, meet with student success advisors, learn about transfer programs, and meet with scholarship representatives.
鈥淚 hope students get a clear guide of where they want to transfer or narrow down some schools where they want to transfer and get their questions answered,鈥 TRIO Student Support Services Program Director Kimimila Simms said. 鈥淪tudents can also get an idea of what it takes to transfer and when they should start the transfer process. As for scholarships, they can make sure they have the funding and can afford the transfer.鈥

As a two-year institution, 自慰视频-Gallup provides several programs for students seeking certificates and associate degrees to enter the workforce directly. But 自慰视频-Gallup also serves as a springboard for students who want to start their education close to home, then transfer to another institution to pursue a bachelor鈥檚 degree or higher.
The College Transfer & Scholarship Fair is organized by the 自慰视频-Gallup Student Affairs Department in partnership with McKinley Academy. McKinley Academy is a dual enrollment high school program that operates on the 自慰视频-Gallup campus and is offered by Gallup-McKinley County Schools.
Be Pro Be Proud
This year鈥檚 fair will add a special visit from the Be Pro Be Proud New Mexico Mobile Workshop in the campus parking lot for two days.
The Mobile Workshop provides students with the opportunity to explore in-demand jobs through interactive, hands-on experiences. The workshop features virtual reality and augmented reality simulators so students can discover which skills professions spark their interests.

鈥淏y participating in 自慰视频 Gallup's College Transfer & Scholarship Fair, I hope McKinley Academy students become aware of all of the amazing college and scholarship opportunities that they can take advantage of after high school,鈥 McKinley Academy School Counselor Melissa Rodriguez said. 鈥淚 also hope this helps them make informed decisions about where they want to attend college or trade programs and ways to help cover the costs of their future educational goals.鈥
