It is one of the key reasons behind ‘College Confessions’ having an incredible fanbase of more than 6 million on Instagram. Wonder how the page stays up to date with the latest trends? We tell you that ‘College Confessions’ was started by a student named Joe Ugenti during his college days. What merely began as a pass time for Joe happened to transform into a huge social media page. He says that the page’s engagement and the content picked up drastically after he heard and created content based on the experience of students during college.
Initially, ‘College Confessions’ began as an ordinary page where students could anonymously share their funny, sad or overwhelming campus stories. Joe felt that there was a need for an online platform where students could be free to express their stories of college. Over the years, the page has aced the game by bringing hilarious content for those who have joined the college or are yet to witness the crazy side of college life. Looking at the huge numbers the Instagram page has drawn, it is safe to say that ‘Collegefessing’ is the most loved page for people from the age of 16 to 21.
Leveraging the latest internet trends, the page has started creating loads of video content to reach out to a wider audience. On top of it, as and when new students enter college life, the page gets new ideas in terms of curating and creating content. “We have always got unique experiences from college students in the last few years. It has helped us more to come up with out of the box content ideas that are savage and pleasing to our audience”, quoted the founder. More so, the content created and curated by the page either makes one feel excited to enter college or makes one nostalgic about the memorable time spent in campus life.

If you thought that ‘Collegefessing’ is only about college students, then you are wrong. This content page gives a funny take on teachers as well. For instance, students share their confessions anonymously about the teachers they liked or disliked. Many users on the social media page even anonymously confess about their teacher crush during college days. “That’s what campus life was all about. Nothing can beat those cherishing moments one has spent during college. We are here to collate the best experiences and add a pinch of humour on the internet”, Joe further stated.
On the other hand, ‘College Confessions’ has attracted the attention of various brands from different verticals. The social media page has earlier collaborated with brands like Hinge, Bud Light Seltzer, IMGN, Atlantic Records, Warner Brothers, Kum & Go and several other startups. The way the page has grown has opened doors for more brand collaborations. “I am glad that ‘College Confessions’ has become a brand itself. We have created a niche that caters to all college students. We have praises coming in from everywhere with regards to the exceptional content that goes up on the page. Such compliments keep us going to push the envelope and bring innovative content”, added Joe.
