What is a MyUni Page?

Every UK university is invited to create and manage their own MyUni page on HerUni, allowing granular coverage of each University’s day-to-day student life. The MyUni pages are an exclusive space for Uni students to dialogue and come together over local events and their unique lifestyle on campus.

Whether it is covering the fun events taking place during Fresher’s Week, photographing the best dressed girls on campus, interviewing student to see who the Uni hotties are, or reporting what people wore to the Halloween Ball – this is the place to keep you in the know of everything going on at your University.

On the MyUni page you will be able to feature stories specific to your University as well as relevant to the other four sections on the main site: Style & Beauty, Wellbeing, Lovers & Friends, Arts & Culture and Life & Finances.
