How do I switch Universities on the Unibuddy App?

The Unibuddy app is your one-stop shop for chatting with Student or Staff Ambassadors, and viewing Content created by Ambassadors at the schools you're interested in. One of the best things about it is that you can chat with Ambassadors from more than one institution - which is very useful as you make the decision on which schools or unis you might apply to.

If you'd like to explore options and chat to multiple institutions, your first step is to sign up to chat with any additional institutions via their Unibuddy Chat platform.

This is hosted on their website - you can think of it as their landing page for Unibuddy - where you can watch videos filmed by Ambassadors, view and filter between Student Ambassadors, read blog posts, and see any available Staff members.

It's a good question! Each university or college has their own methods and vision when it comes to structuring their website. Here are some hints:

Signing up is quick and easy - you will see the Sign up tab in the top right of the Chat platform.

If you are new to Unibuddy, create your account following the prompts. If you already have a Unibuddy account, simply click Sign in towards the top, next to Already have an account?

Signing up on universities Unibuddy Chat platform means that you can send messages to their Ambassadors. Once you have done this, it will be reflected in your Unibuddy app - you'll have those universities loaded to switch between.

To switch the University you're chatting to in the Unibuddy app, see the instructions below:

1. First, log into the Unibuddy mobile app as normal.

2. From the Home tab, you will see the University name and logo at the top of the screen. Select the right arrow next to the University name.

3. Once the arrow is selected, you will see the screen shift to the next University you have signed up with - you'll see their Active Ambassadors and the University's name and logo at the top.

4. You can use the same process: clicking the right arrow at the top of the screen to see the next University you have signed up with, and the left arrow to go back to the previous University.

NOTE: You may see a different Home tab experience per University, depending on whether they have invited you to a Community or not.

Well, that is a shame! Feel free to contact their Admissions or Student Recruitment team and note your disappointment, or email the main university contact email to let them know that you were looking for it.
