Launched in September 2008, Unigo.com is quickly becoming the go-to resource for prospective college students and parents looking for authentic information about the schools they’re considering. The site features tens of thousands of reviews, photos, videos and articles from America’s top colleges, provided by the real experts - the students who attend them. The New York Times reported “Unigo’s college reviews make the U.S. News summaries read like junk mail”. The Wall Street Journal’s Walt Mossberg called Unigo “a college resource built for the age of YouTube and Facebook.” Unigo was named “one of the 100 private companies with the biggest impact on the public sector” by Always On, listed amongst “The Top 10 Social Networks for Generation Y” by Mashable, and was a finalist for a 2009 Webby Award in the category “Best Social Networking Site.” At the age of 26, as CEO of Unigo.com, Jordan was named “one of the 100 most influential New Yorkers in the digital business community” by Silicon Alley Insider. In October, 2009, Unigo formed a strategic relationship with the Wall Street Journal and launched “WSJ On Campus” (http://wsj.unigo.com). This new content section within Unigo combines trusted insight and advice from The Wall Street Journal with insider perspectives received from Unigo’s network of current students and admissions experts from colleges and universities across the country. The Wall Street Journal is the world's leading business publication and holds 33 Pulitzer Prizes for outstanding journalism. The Wall Street Journal has a print and online circulation of more than 2 million, reaching the nation's top business and political leaders.
