With the cancellation of the 2020 Montana Tribal College Fairs due to COVID-19,  we wanted to offer you a chance to connect with students & share resources during this challenging time for us all.

A very special thank you for your continued team efforts & understanding
​to help students together in this unprecedented time.  

message from mpseoc & the montana tribal college fairs

Hi Montana Tribal College Fair Partners & Friends,
 
Thank you for your patience the last week and half while our Board and teams across the state have been meeting to figure out the best plan forward with the COVID-19 crisis.  We were sad to share the cancellation news of the live 2020 Montana Tribal College Fairs, but it just got bigger than us with all the global, national, state, & tribe restrictions to COVID-19.  We hope that you, your teams, and families are staying healthy through this unprecedented time.  We also have placed everyone's safety at the forefront of our thoughts.  We know this impacts all of us, and we appreciate your understanding and team efforts to get through this time together. 
 
With this being beyond our control and impacting us greatly too, we have been brainstorming the best and most fair way forward.  Officially, our contract terms do not offer refunds, as we start to accrue expenses the moment we start sending invitations out for these type of events.  With us being a 501 c 3 nonprofit organization, all your support goes back into supporting these events.  It is really unfortunate that the timing of this crisis has been so close to this event, as we had already accrued a large amount of expenses in final preparation of this event.  In an effort to try and keep this partnership and service growing, we wanted to still offer services to students with all of you.  Therefore, in lieu of this cancellation this year, we are excited to offer you an alternative "Online Profile & Advertisement" to connect with schools, build relations, and share your resources with our Montana students, counselors, high schools, communities, and beyond.  After much deliberation, we feel it is the next best option during this sensitive time.  We also have decided to waive all fees for this option for you which is normally a cost of up to $575.  Overall, we appreciate all your team efforts, as we are all working together through this challenge. 

We deeply appreciate your collaboration and service to students and welcome any ideas for continued collaboration.  Thank you for your patience and understanding, as we all learn together in this new realm.  Should you have any questions, please contact us.  Please stay safe and healthy during this unique time.  

Please see further details below on how to participate in the alternative Online Profile & Advertisement Promotion.

This is an excellent resource!"   
​
 --Montana High School Counselor 
  • Reaches Montana High School students including Seniors, Juniors, Sophomores, and younger!
  • Reaches Montana High School Counselors (over 300 Counselors)!
    • As a free online, interactive Guide Book to Montana High Schools provided in conjunction with the annual MPSEOC Montana Fall College Fair Tour, the Montana Guide to Higher Education is a tool used by high school counselors, parents, and students in the college selection process.
  • Reaches Parents and Nontraditional Students!
  • Advertising in the Guide is limited and by invitation only!
    • Only Institutions approved by the MPSEOC Board of Directors are invited to advertise in the Montana Guide.
  • Your Full Page, Full Color Advertisement will be displayed all year online @ www.MontanaColleges.com!
    • This Guide, your advertisement, logo, and profile will be located on our website (www.MontanaColleges.com) for anyone around the world to download for free at any time.
  • Counselors incorporate the Guide in their post-secondary counseling programs!
    • In fact, many counselors in Montana teach college / career planning courses, and they use this Guide Book as a resource and / or work book.
  • Advertising in the Guide extends your recruitment efforts in Montana!
    • For institutions that participate in the Montana Tour, an advertisement placed in the Montana Guide enhances your efforts greatly, for it reaches High School Juniors, Seniors, Counselors, Parents, etc. before the Tour. For those institutions not able to participate in the Montana Tour, the Montana Guide offers a valuable and affordable means of reaching college bound students in Montana without the travel. Students, parents, and counselors continue to refer to the Guide as a resource for basic information about their post secondary options.

We would still love to have your institution part of this alternative online option to reach students, counselors, high schools, and more.  You would just need to send the original contracted payment amount you agreed to for the fairs to be included in this free / fee waived special option only offered to our Montana Tribal College Fair Registrants.  If you have further questions, please contact us.  |  Contact Us @  406.531.3531  or [email protected]

 |  ARE YOU OFFERING REFUNDS?
With this being beyond our control and impacting us greatly too, we have been brainstorming the best and most fair way forward.  Officially, our contract terms do not offer refunds, as we start to accrue expenses the moment we start sending invitations out for these type of events.  With us being a 501 c 3 nonprofit organization, all your support goes back into supporting these events.  It is really unfortunate that the timing of this crisis has been so close to this event, as we had already accrued a large amount of expenses in final preparation of this event.  In an effort to try and keep this partnership and service growing, we wanted to still offer services to students with all of you.  Therefore, in lieu of this cancellation this year, we are excited to offer you an alternative "Online Profile & Advertisement" to connect with schools, build relations, and share your resources with our Montana students, counselors, high schools, communities, and beyond.  After much deliberation, we feel it is the next best option during this sensitive time.  We also have decided to waive all fees for this option for you which is normally a cost of up to $575.  Overall, we appreciate all your team efforts, as we are all working together through this challenge. 

Therefore, we are hopeful that this will feel fair to you and your institution and also allow your teams to still gain reach and connection to students, counselors, schools, etc. during this time.  If you have any concerns or questions, please contact us, and we are happy to brainstorm ideas together.  Thank you for all your understanding and team efforts on this.
