•Founder

University of Michigan, Class of 2026

"I built DormWay because I was tired of juggling Canvas, Google Calendar, email, and sticky notes just to keep track of my classes. As a student, I knew there had to be a better way. DormWay is that better way—one dashboard that actually understands how college works."

What students are saying

Finally, all my assignments and deadlines in one place. No more switching between Canvas, email, and my calendar.
