The US University Fair was held in Baku with great success.
It was organized in the Hilton Baku Hotel and took place on October 20 from 16:00 to 19:00 (GMT +4).
The US University Fair was held by EducationUSA with support from the US Embassy in Azerbaijan and American Councils for International Education.
The main objective of the exhibition was to provide its visitors with the most complete information about educational programs and study opportunities in US universities. Visitors of the exhibition could directly ask their questions, consult with representatives of US universities and university graduates.
The US University Fair aroused great interest among the public. Representatives of Azerbaijani youth who wish to study in the US had the opportunity to get detailed information about educational institutions.
The event was attended by US Charge d’Affaires in Azerbaijan William Gill. In a conversation with media representatives, the diplomat noted that it was gratifying to see such a great number of Azerbaijani students at the US University Fair.
It was emphasized that nine universities were represented at the exhibition. The event was attended by representatives of those institutions, who provided detailed information about the possibilities of obtaining high-quality education in the US, and answered questions from visitors of the educational exhibition.
William Gill stressed that the activities related to the provision of information about studying in the US for citizens of Azerbaijan were not limited to the event that took place on Oct. 20. EducationUSA, operating in Azerbaijan, throughout the year provides full information about studying in the US and assists in filling in the necessary documents, etc., he said.
The diplomat also expressed hope that holding the educational exhibition will help to increase the number of students who want to receive education in the US.
