And Instagram has a vast reach — 1 billion people worldwide use it monthly. As part of your social media blasts with Study in the USA, your post is shared across platforms: Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter, and yes, Instagram. Over the last three months, our posts have received 3.4 million impressions. In addition, we use Instagram Live to have conversations with current students about their experiences studying in the U.S. Let your current students — use one of your Unibuddy ambassadors! — help attract future students by setting up a live session.
