For those metro high school students that did not attend the HBCU All-Stars College Admissions & Scholarship Fair on Friday, April 2, here is another opportunity during the game day experience. This is a high-impact educational initiative designed to expand awareness, access, and opportunity within higher education—particularly through the powerful legacy of Historically Black Colleges and Universities. Hosted at Corteva Coliseum at the Indiana State Fairgrounds, the Scholarship Fair aligns education with one of the most visible weekends in college basketball.
This free, inclusive event connects prospective students and their families directly with HBCU admissions representatives, creating meaningful, face-to-face engagement around academic programs, admissions pathways, scholarship opportunities, and campus life. By removing barriers to access and providing real-time information, the Fair bridges the gap between aspiration and attainment for students navigating the college decision-making process.
More than an admissions event, the HBCU All-Stars College Admissions & Scholarship Fair celebrates academic excellence, cultural pride, and future-focused leadership. It empowers students to envision themselves on HBCU campuses and positions education as a catalyst for long-term personal, professional, and community success.
For corporate partners, the Fair offers a purpose-driven platform to support educational equity, workforce development, and community investment. Sponsors gain visibility during a nationally relevant sports weekend while aligning with a mission centered on access, opportunity, and the advancement of the next generation of leaders.
Through initiatives like the College Admissions & Scholarship Fair, HBCU All-Stars LLC continues to amplify the impact of HBCUs and plays a critical role in shaping brighter futures through education.
