For institutions
Speak to your students in the app they already open.
HowFar gives universities, polytechnics and colleges a verified place inside campus conversation. Announcements arrive directly, communities have structure, and you can see what actually reached students.

Verified posts from your school, faculty and student union.

What your institution gets
No procurement cycle, no custom build, no app your students have to be persuaded to install.
Reach students where they already are
Announcements land in an app students open every day, instead of a notice board they walk past.
A verified institutional presence
A verified account for your school, faculty or department, so students can tell official from forwarded.
Structured campus communities
Level groups, department groups and society groups with the admin controls to keep them orderly.
Engagement you can see
Understand what reached students, what they opened, and which communities are active.
Student services in one channel
Point students to the right office, form or deadline without another circular.
Digital infrastructure without a build
No procurement cycle for a custom app. Your campus joins an existing platform students already use.
How onboarding works
Four stages, usually across a few weeks depending on how quickly approvals move on your side.
Who we usually work with
- Registrars and student affairs offices
- Faculty and departmental administrators

- Alumni relations and admissions teams
- Stage 1
Introduction call
A short conversation about your campus, who communicates with students today, and what keeps breaking.
- Stage 2
Verification
We confirm your institution and the people authorised to post on its behalf, then issue verified accounts.
- Stage 3
Community setup
Level, department and society groups are created and handed to the administrators you nominate.
- Stage 4
Rollout
We support onboarding across orientation, student union channels and class representatives, then review what worked.
