The EducationUSA initiative, a U.S. Department of State-supported network, is conducting a series of university fairs to connect international students with American higher education opportunities.

In mid-September 2026, the program organized events in Ethiopia and Sri Lanka to provide information on admissions, scholarships, and academic tracks such as engineering and medicine. Following these events, the initiative expanded its reach to Mexico, starting with a fair in Mérida, Yucatán. This event, supported by Yucatán’s Ministry of Sciences, Humanities, Technology, and Innovation, featured over 25 accredited institutions and served as the beginning of an international tour scheduled to visit Guadalajara, Monterrey, Mexico City, Guatemala, and Costa Rica.
