1. Make a list of the universities & colleges you are interested in and conduct a research on them by visiting their websites. From the information you gather from their sites, compile questions you will ask the representatives.
2. At the fair, ask the representatives to confirm the services they claim to offer on their web site.
3. You should have a fair idea of the course & career path you wish to follow before approaching an institution for admission. Education fair is not the appropriate place to choose a career path. Rather it is a platform which provides you with several university / college options under one roof.
The career talks provided at such fairs are meant to enhance course/career choice you have already made.
4. Check if the institution offers guidance on personal growth as well as intellectual growth.
5. Check the employment prospects rating of the university because at the end of the day it's all about gaining good employment.
6. Check the support offered to international students in that institution by asking to speak with some current international students in the school.
7. Compare cost of living in each city, some places are cheaper in terms of accommodation & feeding. London is the most expensive due to the high population.
8. If fair organizers offer to connect you with a UK Visa expert, ask them about the cost to avoid expensive surprises.
9. If the entry requirements are too low, that's a red flag, get worried. Such schools are only concerned with numbers and not quality.
10. Foreign education is expensive so think of funding beyond the first year before embarking on that journey.
If you cannot afford it, you can get equally good education in Nigeria.
