The Learning Centers will be hosting enrollment fairs for Preble County, Englewood and Huber Heights Learning Center.

Enrollment fairs are held to assist current and prospective students in registering for Spring Semester classes.

“At these events, we have our current and our prospective students come in. And during that time, a student can do all nine steps of their enrollment,” said Learning Centers Director Dawayne Kirkman. “Students can come and do an application, complete their financial aid… They can take a placement test, they can attend a new student orientation online, they can meet with a counselor… and then they can register for those classes. After that, they can also pay for their classes, as well as get their Tartan card.”

At the HHLC and ELC, there is a bookstore. Students attending the enrollment fairs at those locations are also able to purchase their books as well. All enrollment fairs will be held from 4 to 7 p.m.

They will start at the HHLC on Tuesday Nov. 6, then at the ELC on Wednesday, Nov. 7, then the PCLC on Thursday, Nov. 8.

Giveaways will take place on all three nights. One $600 scholarship will be awarded at each enrollment fair, 100 Sinclair tote bags will be donated to students each night and memberships to the YMCA will be given away.

Kirkman said all students have to do for the chance to win the scholarship is to attend.

Food and drinks will be provided, as well as different tables of information, such as Appalachian Outreach and the College for Lifelong Learning.

All team members from each Learning Center is expected to attend every enrollment fair.

Kirkman said that’s about 20 members.

He is expecting around 100 students to attend the Huber Heights enrollment fair and 75 to attend the Englewood and Preble county enrollment fair.

“We’re always excited about seeing the community and the students come in, our current students and prospective students,” said Kirkman. “It just helps us as a reminder that we’re starting a new semester cycle.”

Registration for Spring Semester starts on Monday Nov. 5.
