Overview
StudentCrowd was started in 2015 by three graduates who were frustrated with the lack of real and helpful information about aspects of their student experience. StudentCrowd was formed in response to the gut belief that students who are researching university want to hear from current students about every part of university life. We were determined to bring together all the relevant information about the student experience in one place, together with verified student reviews.
