COLLEGE FAIR (PROBE)
PROBE is a college fair that provides students with an opportunity to visit with college representatives and the Georgia Student Finance Commission. The PROBE tour travels around the state each fall and usually comes to Gainesville during the first semester. Please see your counselor for more information.
COLLEGE VISITATION DAYS
Students may visit a college as part of the individual’s transition to post-secondary educational plan if a written, parent request is approved at least three days in advance of the visit by the principal or his/her designee. College visits are limited to two days per school year. All work missed must be made up and will be recorded as full credit. Proof of the official visit must be submitted to the school counselor upon the student’s return to school in order for the day to be coded as an instructional activity. Students who fail to submit proof of the college visit will have their attendance record adjusted to reflect an absence from school. Students are encouraged to visit colleges on teacher workdays and student holidays.
