User Reviews

Nearpeer for College has a strong concept to connect campus peers by interests and help social transitions, with potential for finding roommates and forming groups. However, users repeatedly report stability and UX issues: frequent glitches and slow loads, unreliable notifications, and a confusing interface with limited search options. Some note missing majors and filter gaps. Overall, the idea is solid, but execution problems hinder widespread adoption.

Pros

Great concept to meet campus peers and connect with others by interests
Helps with social transition for freshmen and transfer students
Useful for finding roommates/suitemates and forming campus groups
Facilitates meeting people within your own college community

Cons

Persistent glitches and slow loading, often resulting in white screens or crashes
Unreliable or duplicated push notifications, making conversations hard to follow
Poor UI/UX with a confusing layout and limited search options
Incomplete data such as missing majors (e.g., theater) and limited filters for colleges

This app is fantastic - my school, Cal State Northridge, has Nearpeer for all the new students. It’s really cool how I can see and connect with other people who share my interests and hobbies. If your school has it, definitely use it, it is awesome.

The concept is great to meet friends on campus, but it’s not user friendly. I wish it was like instagram where it had a separate icon specifically for messages

It is helpful, but I find that it doesn’t allow for all majors. My college has a theater major, but Nearpeer says that it isn’t a major. I know that Nearpeer doesn’t see theater as an academic subject, but if a student is using it for their specific college, they should list the college’s majors.
