A student-only social marketplace built to reduce loneliness among university students, especially internationals. Dorm Gigs lets students be themselves, share real campus life, and connect through small everyday interactions, turning isolation into a living, social campus network.
Hey everyone!
DormGigs started from something very real, loneliness in university, especially for international students.
When you move to a new country, you don’t just lose familiarity — you lose your circle, your comfort, and sometimes even your sense of belonging. And strangely, social media doesn’t help. It makes everything look perfect while you’re struggling quietly.
I wanted to build a place where students don’t have to pretend.
- No parents watching.
- No pressure to look perfect.
- No “highlight reel” version of life.
Just real student life: the chaos, the struggles, the random thoughts, and the small ways people connect every day.
"Dorm Gigs" also adds a layer of interaction through small services and favors — because often, the easiest way to connect is through doing something together, even something simple.
The goal is simple:
" Make university feel less lonely and be yourself! "
It’s still early, still evolving, and very much shaped by the students using it.
Would genuinely love your thoughts and feedback
