Social Media Best Practices

Being Everything, Everywhere All At Once

Using Social Media to Attract New Students

Social Media Best Practices - Feb 2026

Recorded February 19th 2026

Prospective students aren’t waiting for your next email - they’re scrolling. They’re discovering universities through TikToks, Reels, comments, and DMs, forming opinions long before they hit your website.

We dive into how a smart multichannel strategy, powered by student-generated content, can turn a first scroll into real interest, and ultimately, an application.

What does it take to make students think, “I can see myself studying there”?

In our on-demand session we cover:

  • Building cross-platform narratives instead of one-off posts
  • Making the most of your UGC
  • How institutions are posting beyond TikTok (have you heard of UpScrolled? And do you need to be on it?!)
  • What content works for undergraduate vs graduate, or on LinkedIn vs Instagram
  • When to use day-in-the-life content vs academic storytelling

Watch this on-demand webinar to see how to turn scattered and ad-hoc content into a resource for students making their university decision.
