I remember using the website when the mobile app wasn’t a thing and always wanting to be able to see the gigs on my phone without logging in every time. This has been such a cool way to apply for gigs when I have a few spare moments. The microgigs are also SOO cool and you can tell that the community loves them too with how fast they go. ### 5/5 — Love it!!

Everyday there’s new opportunities being posted. When I wake up I’m always so excited to check what’s new. It was really easy for me to dive in right away, start making money and creating content. The perfect app for a student if you ask me. ### 5/5 — Awesome Paid Opportunities For Students *2026-08-04* Home From College (HFC) is an amazing place for college students to build their resume experience and hands-on skills! I have personally noticed a massive difference in my ability to utilize affiliate links, gain experience in user generated content, annd network with innovative students across the country all thanks to Home From College. A hugeeee shoutout to the Chief of Staff, Noah Wong, for always being a huge help, and to the CEO/Co-Founder, Julia Haber, for believing in us and allowing us to grow in this amazing community!! ### 5/5 — I've made $2200 *2026-08-03, version 1.16.59* I love Home From College, since joining the app in late 2025 I have worked with some of my favorite brands, such as Pacifica Beauty. As a marketing major, it has been a great way to get experience creating content. As a student, it has been amazing to earn some extra income. I can truly not recommend this platform enough!! ### 5/5 — PAID FOR MY COLLEGE *2026-08-03, version 1.16.59* This platform single-handedly helped me pay for all my college expenses and lined up so many amazing opportunities for me. I would make every college student do this if I could. Amazing platform, and such an easy way to get started with online income. ### 5/5 — LOVE HFC!!!!! *2026-08-03* I absolutely love Home From College!

It’s been a fun and flexible way to grow my skills as a student creator. ### 5/5 — Best experience ever! *2026-08-01, version 1.16.59* I’ve been using Home from college for a little over a year now and it’s honestly the best platform for new and experienced content creators. They publish new gigs every week. Highly recommend! ### 5/5 — Actually Helped Me Land Real Opportunities *2026-07-31* I downloaded Home From College while looking for ways to gain experience during college, and it ended up being one of the few apps that actually delivered. I was selected as a LinkedIn Ambassador, and the process was straightforward from start to finish. The app made it easy to find opportunities, submit work, and keep track of everything in one place. I also liked that the roles felt relevant to students who want to build their resumes instead of just making quick money. Overall, it was a smooth experience, and I’d definitely recommend it to other college students looking for flexible, meaningful work. ### 5/5 — Incredible Platform *2026-07-31* I've been working with H/FC for about 3 months now, and I've never had anything short of an incredible experience. Great work opportunities, an incredible support team that responds and takes care of problems quickly, and plenty of ways to be active in growing the platform. I'm extremely fortunate to have been able to work with H/FC, and I look forward to the future working with them. ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-07-31, version 1.16.59* Great place for students looking for small gigs! ### 5/5 — Love!! *2026-07-31, version 1.16.59* Love that H/FC finally has an app!! It makes it so convenient to upload content and materials to my gigs while being able to keep in touch with brands on the go! Seriously, this app has given me so many opportunities to network and grow my portfolio. Love love love H/FC! ### 5/5 — Love it! *2026-07-31* I had such a great experience with Home From College! The entire process was smooth, easy to navigate, and exactly as described. The quality exceeded my expectations, and everything arrived in excellent condition. I really appreciate the care and attention to detail—they made the experience stress-free from start to finish. I would definitely recommend Home From College to anyone looking for reliable service and quality products. I’ll absolutely be ordering from them again! ### 5/5 — Great App! I love it! *2026-07-30* I've been using Home From College since March, and it has been one of the best resources I've found as a college student. In just a few months, I've earned over $1,200 by applying to opportunities through the app. What I really like is that it brings so many different opportunities together in one place. You can find paid brand ambassador programs, content creation opportunities, event staffing, campus jobs, paid gigs, and even micro gigs that are quick to complete if you're looking to make extra money in your free time. The app is very easy to navigate, and new opportunities are added regularly, so there's always something new to apply for. It also makes it simple to keep track of applications and discover companies you may not have found otherwise. Whether you're looking to earn extra income, gain experience, or build your resume while you're in college, I definitely recommend downloading Home From College. ### 5/5 — Love this app! *2026-07-30* I've been using Home From College since March, and it has been one of the best resources I've found as a college student.

Been cheated of payment from some gigs and the customer service was virtually nonexistent. I wouldn’t sleep on this company. ### 1/5 — Glitches and lack of payment *2026-03-19, version 1.10.9.1* Had completed some surveys received $21 but checked back and they were gone. There’s no help button either. ### 2/5 — Microgig Missing *2026-08-14, version 1.16.64* Bro the microgig button are missing, no more mocrogig after the recent update. I think its bugging cuz when i open the website theres a past microgig for brands. ### 3/5 — WHERE DID MY MICROGIGS FEATURE GO?! *2026-08-07, version 1.16.64* Where did my microgig option go it was my only type of side hustle i did for my concert tickets please bring it back i love yall ### 3/5 — Great for beginners! *2026-07-13, version 1.16.43* Had a great experience ### 3/5 — Love the app but would like adjustments to be made before I give it 5 stars *2026-05-15* I love how easy it is to apply to gigs and how straightforward the process is (even though I haven’t been selected yet 💔). However one suggestion I’d like to make is for the deadline to apply to be clear. Right now it seems like the days shown on the gig could either be the deadline or the expected number of days the gig would last. Either way I would like the deadline and the expected days to be written clearly with headings. ALSO for brands that ask the same questions for each of their separate gigs it would be really useful if you could select multiple of their gigs and apply all at once. That would save so much time and make the process less redundant because right now it’s really time consuming! ### 3/5 — Collage gigs *2026-04-02, version 1.12.5* Good for college students trying to find one time gigs ### 4/5 — Awesome for college students looking for $$ or experience! *2026-07-31* The variety of roles offered makes it easy to make some money while also gaining job experience. There’s also a lot of well-known companies that post roles on there which is awesome! The only thing I’d say is the interface isn’t the best — the search tool doesn’t come up with the most accurate results and there’s no way to save gigs and go back to them later. ### 4/5 — Great platform! *2026-06-03, version 1.16.16* Overall great platform for finding opportunities in your area for in person events or collaborations. ### 4/5 — great app but need better customer service *2026-05-31, version 1.16.16* I really like this app because it lets me easily access GIGs and leave reviews or send messages! i’ve made a lot from here but when there’s issues, they need a better support team to help resolve ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — GET THIS APP *2026-08-15, version 1.16.64* this has been such a great side hustle I couldn’t recommend enough ### 5/5 — The best and most authentic platform, hands down to make extra money! *2026-08-14, version 1.16.64* If you are remotely interested in creating UGC content, collaborating with brands, and growing in your content creation skills, you NEED to be on Home From College! Genuinely such a great platform, staffed by an amazing team! ### 5/5 — Love the app *2026-08-14, version 1.16.64* HFC is an easy way for students or creators to work with brands. The UI is easy to use and the team is great! ### 5/5 — Amazing App *2026-08-14, version 1.16.64* This app has literally changed my life. I have made thousands of $$ which I did not think was possible. The app works so well and I love this platform. 100% recommend. ### 5/5 — HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE H\FC APP *2026-08-13, version 1.16.64* Love the H\FC app!! It’s so useful ### 5/5 — Paid GIGs for College Students!! *2026-08-13, version 1.16.64* Home From College is the BEST platform for college students to get real, paid experience from their favorite brands! The number of opportunities I've gotten from HFC has been invaluable to my personal and professional growth, and I've gotten to work with amazing brands I've always dreamed of working with! ### 5/5 — The app that’s worth it *2026-08-11, version 1.16.64* I believe this app is worth it because it has allowed me to have a huge flexibility when looking for gigs and it has also allowed me to view brand partnerships and a whole new different way. ### 5/5 — Perfect for College Students *2026-08-08* This app has been SO helpful in helping me build my understanding of UGC and building a platform to market yourself and your favorite brands. I’ve absolutely loved being able to work with GoPuff and so many other brands through MicroGIGs to help me stand out on my interviews and so much more. The best part… you get PAID. As a traditional “broke college student,” this was the perfect opportunity to earn & learn. ### 5/5 — Great app for college students *2026-08-07* For the past few months, I was getting involved with the Microgigs that they post every weekday at 3 PM EST and they were amazing. You had to increase brand awareness by promoting their content and truely helped me understand how content makes a company stand out to its consumers. Pretty much all of them took less than 30 mins to complete. It also taught me why distribution is key with a good product. Great for future content creators! ### 5/5 — 100% Worth It *2026-08-07, version 1.16.64* I would 100% recommend especially for college freshman looking to make some extra fun money! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
