EDUfair was established in 2004 because until that time there was a lack of information available about higher education in Serbia. It was the first event where future freshmen and future master students could learn about different Serbian and foreign study programs at one place.[6] According to the statistics, EDUfair gathered over 65,000 visitors during the last 14 years.[7]

During the last 5 years, it has been implementing social media advertising, as it provides easier and more effective approach towards students. Throughout its advertising program, EDUfair heavily uses the slogan “So what are you going to study?”.[9]
