The life of a university student can be very difficult, right? In the midst of jobs, tests, internships and some – perhaps many – existential crises, we feel alone and lost. Everything is even worse if you are not attending a university in your hometown, the lack of family nearby can make the need for a support network even greater. In any case, sharing experiences, fears, challenges and achievements with people who are going through what we are is very good. In this regard, Facebook groups can be of great help to university students who want to talk, laugh, meet people and share lots of memes.
Facebook groups for college students
Share Your Quarantine
Forty was, without a doubt, a big blow in the lives of university students. The doubt about the future of the course, the concern of having to attend college for another semester and the despair of having to go back home – those who left their homes to study – were gradually replaced by the chaos of distance learning that , until today, is the reality of many universities, mainly the federal and state ones in Brazil.
Share Your Quarenta is a Facebook group precisely for sharing these doubts, concerns and despair. But, as the man will not only live in disgrace, there are also a lot of memes about this period at home and, mainly about distance learning, which is not being easy.
This is a Facebook group really made to distract from the difficult and boring moments, sponsored by the quarantine.
Share Your Faculty
College students know that it's not just their lives that are difficult, the lives of those trying to become one aren't the best either. There are so many options for universities in Brazil, each with its advantages and disadvantages, that it can make a future university student's head explode from thinking about which one they want to enter.
Share Your College is a Facebook group that can help a lot in choosing your college. There, the already veterans of the various colleges in Brazil will share their experiences, show the spaces of the universities and explain how the methodology of their courses works, in addition to, of course, showing the parties, chopadas, drums and university games that, without a shadow of undoubtedly weigh heavily in choosing the best college.
But this is not a Facebook group just to expose your college and advertise it to future freshmen, it is also an environment for you to vent, complain about your crazy professors and low grades and, as a university student never gives up, ask for help for colleagues in work, CBT, questionnaires, surveys and all those college things that suck our energy, but that, deep down, we love.
Share Your Career
University is a crucial moment in our career. It is during this period that university students should start networking, look for companies that identify themselves and look for courses that add to their curriculum. In this sense, Share Your Career is a Facebook group for just that.
In this Facebook group, professional experiences are posted, course tips, books, articles, texts, exchange experiences, contacts and a lot of other subjects that will, without a doubt, add to that first professional baggage that we acquired in college and that we will take to life, since it is the kickoff of a whole story.
There is also a nice space for those who are already in graduate school, master's or doctorate, as there are also many tips and sharing of experiences for those who are already at this stage.
Share Your Internship
The university student needs to take advantage of the college phase to acquire professional experience and, then, leave the university with a good curriculum that makes him enter the job market. Thinking about it, the cool thing is to do internships that will count, in the future, as professional experiences.
Share Your Internship is a Facebook group precisely to help with this issue, there you will find open internship vacancies for your course in your city.

share your job
University life is not always so easy. Many cannot work full time because they go to college in the morning or in the afternoon, others are already in internship, which also prevents a traditional job and the remuneration is very low.
In this sense, many university students choose to undertake and open their own company. Share Your Job is a Facebook group that promotes work for people who are in college. Whether in a confectionery, clothing store, thrift store, accessories, etc., many university students need this income to support themselves. Therefore, this Facebook group is a way to make more people aware of these works.
There is a Facebook group where job openings are prohibited, the idea is to show the work of small entrepreneurs.
Share Your Vacancies
Many college students need one of these traditional jobs to support themselves. In this sense, Share Your Vagas is a Facebook group made precisely for job openings to be advertised, with the focus, of course, on university students.
There you can also find testimonials about companies that members have worked for and you can give feedback on what they are like and what to do to join them. This is one of the most interesting Facebook groups for university students looking for a job.
The university student in the pandemic
A study by the Global Student Survey shows that 76% of college students were negatively impacted by the pandemic. In particular, symptoms of depression, anxiety, stress and loneliness stand out.
Many factors contribute to these symptoms. In addition to isolation itself, there are other concerns, such as work – which many have lost – and whether they will be able to continue in college. Therefore, the Facebook groups mentioned here can be useful, since they can help in several ways, such as a form of company, to relieve stress and even help with career-related issues.
