College – U. Got It?

Welcome to The CollegeBound Network

Top Colleges on Twitter

Barbara | January 18, 2011

You’ve seen us many times on this blog profess our undying love for social media, particularly Twitter. (We do love our weekly #collegebound chats!) And here’s one of the many reasons we love it so: Colleges and universities across the country–and around the WORLD–have signed on to Twitter to discuss any and all topics in the world of higher education.

Of course, not all tweets are created equally. There are some tweeple who truly rule the roost when it comes to engaging followers. How does one determine Twitter clout? Why Klout, of course. Billing itself as “the standard for influence,” the website gathers data to measure your social networking worth. Just yesterday, Klout’s blog announced the top 10 most influential colleges on Twitter. Behold! You are truly in the presence of Twitter greatness if you follow any of these schools:

1. Stanford University
2. Syracuse University
3. Harvard University
4. University of Wisconsin-Madison
5. University of California, Berkeley
6. Butler University
7. Tufts University
8. University of Minnesota
9. University of Texas at Austin
10. Marquette University

Have you applied to any of these schools? Follow them on Twitter and learn more student life. And don’t forget to follow us for information on everything else about college!
