At the end of the high school education period and vocational high school, graduates will find information about universities to continue their education. Searching for information has usually done by attending college promotion events such as education exhibition. However, the information provided in education exhibition not detailed, so students do not get complete information about the college regarding accreditation, department and location of the college. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an application that can make it easier to conduct college searches. This application called "Find Campus", and is equipped with camera, map and campus list features. The Find Campus apps provide information on Universities in South Jakarta, which cover five categories, namely universities, institutes, high schools, polytechnics, and academics. The Find Campus application displays some information such as the name of the college, address, accreditation, official website of the college, telephone number, college logo, and college photos. This application is equipped with an Augmented Reality feature that uses a library of Wikitude and Location Based Services for College search and navigation. This Augmented Reality feature can facilitate users in conducting college searches. This feature utilizes existing cameras on smartphones that aim to provide information about the position of the college. This application provides user convenience in searching for colleges, especially those in the area of South Jakarta
