Keeping an Alumni Handshake Account
Alumni accounts on Handshake function similarly to student accounts. You do not need to modify your account to make it an alumni account. However, to keep using the platform as an alum, we strongly suggest the following steps:
- Update Your Email (current student to 6 months post-graduation): Change your primary email address to a personal one to maintain access to your account if you lose access to your school email. To learn more about updating your primary email address, refer to Update Your Primary Email Address in Handshake.
- Create Handshake Credential (0-6 months post-graduation): If you used your school's Single Sign-On (SSO) system to log in to Handshake, you'll need to create a Handshake password to continue logging in. To create your Handshake credentials, check out Log In as an Alum: Set your Handshake Password.
- Deleted Alumni Email Account: If your alumni account is no longer active, please contact the Career Education and Development office for support.
