BENTON TOWNSHIP — Lake Michigan College will host its annual College Night event from 6 to 7:30 p.m. Monday.

High school students and their parents are invited to attend the free event to meet with representatives from numerous colleges and universities throughout the Midwest. Adult students returning to college or attending college for the first time as well as transferring community college students are also invited to attend.

The event will be in the Grand Upton Hall of The Mendel Center, which is located at the college’s Benton Harbor campus, located at 2755 E. Napier Ave.

“High school students and those interested in college often lead busy lives, so it can be tough to find time to research and visit colleges. By hosting a number of colleges one night in one location, they can get their questions answered and make informed choices about their college career,” said LMC President Dr. Trevor Kubatzke.

Invited schools include Andrews University, Central Michigan University, the College for Creative Studies, Ferris State University, Grand Valley State University, Indiana University South Bend, Michigan State University, St. Mary’s College, the University of Michigan, Western Michigan University, and many more.

Financial aid workshops will also be held during the event to provide attendees with information about financial aid options and how and when to apply for aid.

Those who are interested in attending College Night are encouraged to register for the event at lakemichigancollege.edu/collegenight.
