Why do I have to register in advance?

  • In order to meet with admissions professionals and sign up for virtual one-on-one or group sessions with program recruiters, you will have to register for the fair. Recruiters may have limited availability, so appointments are first-come, first-served.
  • For detailed instructions on how to register and sign up to meet with recruiters, click here.

How can I register?

  • Registration is easy through Handshake. Click here to register, or search for the fair directly in Handshake’s Fairs section. Click the “Register/Join Event” button, answer a few quick questions, click “Finish” and you’re done!

What happens after I register?

  • Once you’ve registered, you will be able to sign up for one-on-one and group sessions with graduate and professional schools. Their recruiters will set up their schedules in the Handshake fair and you can pick an available time that works well for you.
  • Be sure to select a time that you know you will be able to attend. If you decide you are no longer able to attend that session, leave the session so that it becomes available for another student.

Where can I go for questions the day of the fair?

  • UCF Career Services staff will be available via Zoom to assist with troubleshooting and other questions/concerns from 10am-2pm on October 14. You can also email csevents@ucf.edu.
