Meet publicly first
Choose visible places such as libraries, student centers, coffee shops, campus events, or other well-populated locations.
Trust and safety
Connect confidently and protect yourself
EduHookup helps students discover people, opportunities, services, and campus activity. Use good judgment, protect private information, recognize pressure or scams, and report conduct that appears unsafe.
Protect private information
Do not share passwords, financial details, private addresses, class schedules, verification codes, or sensitive personal information.
Stop when something feels wrong
End communication when someone becomes threatening, manipulative, secretive, financially demanding, or unwilling to respect your boundaries.
Meeting safely
Plan first meetings carefully
- Tell a trusted friend where you are going.
- Keep your phone charged and accessible.
- Arrange your own transportation.
- Do not allow someone to pressure you into changing locations.
- Leave immediately when you feel uncomfortable.
Marketplace and payment safety
Inspect items before exchanging money and meet in a public location. Be cautious with wire transfers, gift cards, cryptocurrency, payment links, deposits, verification fees, overpayments, and requests to move a transaction outside the platform.
EduHookup does not guarantee listings, employment offers, housing offers, tutors, employers, services, events, or transactions between users.
Reporting and emergencies
Use the report tools available on posts and messages or contact EduHookup with the post URL, username, college, screenshots, and relevant details. Reported messages may be reviewed to investigate abuse or policy violations.
EduHookup is not an emergency service. If someone is in immediate danger, contact local emergency services or campus police instead of waiting for a platform response.
