Oregon GEAR UP

College admissions representatives visit high schools each fall to meet juniors and seniors and share information about their campus programs. Tight budgets mean they can’t get to all the schools they’d like, including many small rural ones. Therefore, Oregon GEAR UP is coordinating a pilot program for virtual visits, no travel required!

With a webcam, microphone or phone, a large monitor or screen & projector, and an internet connection, high schools and colleges can connect no matter where they are.

The following high schools are interested in participating in the virtual admissions visits pilot project. We encourage you to consider dividing the list among several staff members so multiple people get to experience this new way of reaching students. For those who prefer to assign schools based on recruitment territories, we provide location information and CEEB numbers.
