The story behind College Twist

College Twist started as a tool for students to see the truth about their college of interest. The goal was to expose the facts that you wouldn’t find on a normal tour. CT has evolved to become its own social network centralized around colleges. This is where all students of the school can meet- current, past, and prospective- extending the campus experience online. The concept captured is to share the experience not through words but visual representations, in a fun, interactive and organized manner. This concept has evolved from a basic idea that has been restructured to provide a service for college students.


Our mission

College Twist will be a social networking website targeted at current, past and prospective students of the colleges it covers. The website will be a source of discussion, information, pictures and video pertaining to those colleges. The content will be a collaboration between select campus representatives and the student community. The goal of College Twist is to maximize your participation in the college experience.
