Instagram launched Schools on August 26, giving students an option to add their school on profiles after verifying enrollment through UniDays. Verified students can add a school or college badge and set visibility to fellow schoolmates, all followers, or opt out. Students can browse a directory of peers filtered by year or view the entire student body. Verification aims to create a safer environment for active students to connect. Similar campus-verification features launched on TikTok with UniDays, and the feature echoes Facebook’s early college-directory origins amid growing demand for in-person experiences and rising app fatigue.
At UniDays, we're committed to creating safer, more rewarding digital experiences for the next generation. We do this by making verification and digital identity a foundation, not a barrier, for young people,
We're proud to partner with Instagram to champion digital trust and online safety. This new feature, underpinned by our world-leading verification technology, enables students to build more authentic, meaningful, and secure connections online.
Get in, folks; we're doing 2005 Facebook again.
