About National Higher Education Day

National Higher Education Day is observed annually on June 6th.  Celebrate by advocating for higher education on your social media sites. Specifically, you can post photos about your education, your future academic goals, or how your education has helped you in your career. You can also promote scholarship opportunities, or donate to a scholarship program. Use #NationalHigherEducationDay.

National Higher Education Day was founded in 2015 by Izamar Olaguez and Marcie Hronis, with the purpose of motivating students to pursue higher education and make college accessible for all.
