It’s about what you do, not how you look.
One small photo. Your major, your goals and what you’ve done come first.

- Mutual only
- A chat opens only when you both like each other.
Practice

Coffee chats
Then meet for coffee.
Plan it in three taps. They confirm before it’s official, and things to talk about are ready when you sit down.
- A coffee shop, or video
- In person at a coffee shop near campus, or a video coffee with a student at another school.
- Safety check first
- One short reminder before anyone confirms.
Who it’s for
Any college student, any major. And a few mentors: people with jobs who want to help, each one checked by us. Recruiters are coming later.
Is it free?
Yes. Seeing who liked you, chatting, planning a coffee chat and practice are all free. There are no fees, trials or subscriptions.
Is it a dating app?
No. It is for careers: one small photo, and your profile is about what you study, what you are aiming for and what you have done. Our community guidelines ask everyone to keep it about careers.
Who can see my profile and my messages?
Other students, at your school and at other schools, can see your profile: your name, class year, school, majors and minors, photo, one-liner, the field you are aiming for, experience, interests, bio, LinkedIn link and badges. The school on a card comes from the student’s school email whenever we know that school. Your email address is never shown. Only you and your match can see your conversation. The details are in the Privacy Policy.
Is it safe to meet up?
Coffee chats are planned at coffee shops near campus, and both of you confirm before one is set. A short safety reminder shows before anyone confirms, and you can block or report anyone: a person on our team reviews every report. Read our safety tips before you go.
Is my school on it?
Any college student with a .edu email can sign up, at any school. You see students from every school on CoffeeChat, and students at your own school come a little sooner, since you can meet them in person. To see only your own school, some majors or some class years, use the filters at the top of Swipe.
