The School Network Management page enables you to manage your school connections efficiently, as well as discover new schools to connect with from our 1000+ partner schools.
Permission to recruit at each school is maintained at a company-to-school level. This means:
- If you add a school to your Favorites list that your company is already approved at, you'll automatically be able to recruit there.
- If you add a school your company has never requested to recruit at before, an approval request will go out to that school. You will need to wait until you are approved by the school to recruit there.
- If your company has already been declined at a school, you will not be able to recruit there unless the school changes your status to approved.
To access School Network Management, click Schools on the left navigation bar in Handshake. All employers will have access to Favorite Schools (for Premium partners, this is Schools Lists), Your Employer's Schools, and More Schools on Handshake. Premium partners also have access to a fourth tab, School Explorer.

Each topic section includes a breakdown of the page functionality and available filters.
Favorite schools
Schools that have been favorited are listed in the Favorites tab. This list of schools is the list you may select to post a job to, host an interview with, or attend an event/fair.
- Tip: If your company profile is approved to recruit at a school, but you aren't seeing that school as an option (or are missing applicants or attendees), make sure you have the school added to your Favorites!
Page Filters
Use the filters on the left of the Favorites page to narrow down the displayed list of schools. Core employers (employers with free accounts) have access to the following filters:
- Keyword search
- Permissions
- This defines how you are able to interact with the school in Handshake. For example, if you do not have permission to post a job, you will not see that school as an option to post to.
