About IncomingU

Freshman year starts before you get to campus.

The summer before college is full of questions nobody quite answers: which dorm to request, what to actually pack, whether it's weird to message your future roommate first. IncomingU started as a way to answer a smaller question: what if you already knew a few faces before move-in day?

One photo, one bio, and you're part of your class before day one.

What we do

One school. One class. All about you.

IncomingU runs a dedicated Instagram account for each school's incoming class, not a shared national feed. Every post is submitted directly by an incoming student and reviewed by a real person before anything goes up.

No listicles, no recycled advice. Just names, faces, and a few lines from the people you're about to spend the next four years with.

Why it's different

Built for relevance. Not recycled for clicks.

Most "college life" content is written for everyone, which means it's really written for no one. Every IncomingU account only ever posts for one school's one incoming class.

Made for one school and class

Every account exists for a single university's incoming class, not a general audience.

Always current

What you see reflects this year's incoming students, not a repost from three years ago.

No fluff, no ads

Just real submissions from real incoming classmates, reviewed by hand before anything posts.

Small, on purpose

One school's class at a time, so nothing gets lost in a bigger, noisier feed.

Where we are

Growing across campuses.

IncomingU runs at a handful of universities today, with new schools added as more incoming classes sign on.

Every account starts the same way: free to set up and built for exactly one class at exactly one school.
