Quacquarelli Symonds ('QS') connects students, universities, and business schools as the world's largest higher education network. We are best known for publishing the QS World University Rankings, featured on TopUniversities.com. We also host global events, such as our QS World Grad School Tour, which bring prospective students and top universities together under one roof. Our graduate fair presents an awesome opportunity for those considering grad school and professional development:
- Face-to-face conversations with admissions directors from elite universities from across the globe
- Free test prep seminars (ex: how to ace the GRE) with leading local providers
- Free resume clinics with industry experts
- Free, professional headshots
- A scholarship directory with $7 million in scholarships
- Special discounts and offers from partners
