FAIRFAX, VA       September 28, 2023

George Mason University is proud to announce that it has become the first Spokin Verified College, setting a new standard for food allergy and celiac safety in higher education campus dining.  Spokin is the leading mobile app and platform dedicated to helping individuals with food allergies and celiac find safe food options.  

 

 

Spokin’s mission is to connect the food allergy and celiac communities with safe places, products, and each other. The app has over 90,000 reviews from users in 130 countries, including reviews for a number of colleges and universities across the country.  

 

 

In response to the unique needs of college students with food allergies and celiac, Spokin is launching the Verified College Program. The program provides current and prospective college students with answers to their most commonly asked questions in the form of a Spokin proprietary FAQ asked of all Verified Colleges. Questions include: “Where are ingredients and allergen information available to students?”, and “Do you offer stations free of any allergens?”, to create a more informed dining experience for students and free up valuable university resources. The app is a place for students to share their experiences in the form of reviews that can help prospective students during the selection process. 

 

George Mason University proudly earned the impressive #59 ranking in Spokin's 2023 edition of the Top 100 Allergy-Friendly Colleges. As the first verified college location, George Mason University will serve as a leader in the field of higher education for people with food allergies and celiac, an ever-increasing population.
