San Francisco, CA – XpandU today announced the launch of its new app, aimed at bringing community back to college. Most social apps these days focus on your current circle, but XpandU looks to flip the script, giving you access to all students!
XpandU’s mission is to give students a place to go where they can easily establish more relationships with students, creating more of a network on their own campuses and beyond. Facebook was initially established for college students to do just that; though it undeniably has become the most successful social media platform ever, it no longer achieves its original intent.
“We created XpandU because we felt there was no great place designed for young people to easily meet and connect on this personal level,” said Sam Halem, Founder and CEO of XpandU. “There are hundreds of thousands of college students who don’t have the tools to give them that opportunity to meet peers not only at their own schools, but colleges nationwide. XpandU is an app that gives students this tool to really connect with these other students and to leverage this college network from the palm of their hands!”
The process for current college students is simple. All they need to do is download XpandU from the Apple App Store and register with their .edu college email address. From there, the doors are open to a new world of communicating through Facetime, forming bonds solely within their peer group both close and across the country. Students will meet many they would not otherwise have had the opportunity to meet. From personal and professional standpoints, the kind of connection that XpandU facilitates has the potential to have a significant impact on students. The app is currently available to almost every college and university in the country.
“We’re excited about the opportunities that XpandU can provide to hundreds of thousands of college students nationwide,” said Sam Halem. “XpandU has the potential to change how they communicate and meet new people – we’re looking forward to great things!”
Only college students are allowed to join the app, so users know they are connecting with their peers. Meeting people has never been easier. Push a button, FaceTime, and expand your network! Download XpandU today on the Apple App Store to get started or learn more!
