Cal State San Marcos is hosting the College is for Me! conference, a free event to show how higher education can lead to social mobility, from 9 a.m.-1 p.m. on April 20 in the USU Ballroom.

The College is for Me! conference annually attracts students from throughout San Diego, Riverside and Orange counties, helping toeducate mostly first-generation prospective college students and their families about the college process. The conference features topics such as getting into college, paying for college and what college can do for you.

"College is for Me! was a beautiful event that highlighted the multitude of higher ed opportunities in our region," said Tina King, who is president of the San Diego College of Continuing Education.

Not only will this event help upcoming college students with the transition process, in conjunction with Earth Day, this year's conference will also addresshow college can support careers in sustainable professions, research and advocacy.

"I feel a lot more prepared for the application process after today," said Ben Tactay, a former Escondido High School student who attended a past event.

Free breakfast and lunch will be provided.
