Alumni Verification Process
How alumni get verified on Clstr, stay connected to their college, and mentor juniors.
Why alumni matter
Your college network doesn't stop when you graduate. Alumni have the jobs you want, the experience you need, and the connections that actually matter.
Clstr brings them back into the campus ecosystem so they can mentor juniors, recruit from their alma mater, and stay updated on college life.
How alumni get verified
Alumni often lose access to their .edu emails. To get verified, they submit an alternative proof of graduation — like a degree certificate, an old ID card, or an active LinkedIn profile linked to the college.
Our team reviews these manually to ensure nobody is faking their alumni status.
What alumni can do
Verified alumni get a special badge. They can post in the campus feed, answer questions, and list themselves as mentors. They can't join student-only clubs, but they can host AMAs and workshops.
Mentorship built in
If you're a student, you can reach out to verified alumni for advice. It's a warm introduction — they already know you share a campus history, which makes them far more likely to reply than a random connection on LinkedIn.
