LinkedIn University Pages |
“We believe University Pages will be especially valuable for students making their first, big decision about where to attend college. Therefore, beginning on September 12, we will be making LinkedIn available to high school students who can use LinkedIn to explore schools worldwide, expand their understanding of the careers available, and get a head start on building a network of family and friends to help guide them at every milestone,” said a company release.
The new page can help students in the following ways.
Join the conversation
University Pages are a great place to get regular updates about campus news and activities from the schools themselves, to ask questions, and engage with both the campus community and alumni of schools.
