Do you want to have a group exclusively for students from your school or university? Do you want to help your schoolmates find your group with their email addresses? In any case, you can start a school group on GroupMe. Follow our guide below, and we’ll show you how.

A lot of schools and universities give out their own email addresses for their students to use for stuff online. Students can use these email addresses for creating accounts for school purposes or communication with other students.
