How to Reactivate a File

Alumni may reactivate at any time.

Reactivations are only necessary if you wish to send your file without paying the higher One Time Send fees.

Cal Students

If you are a currently registered Cal student, your student status will automatically be verified every time you login via CalNet. This will extend your membership till the end of the current semester. Your student membership will be extended every semester that you are registered as a Cal student. Please be sure to update your contact information (email, address, and phone numbers) by clicking on the Registration link in the Main Menu of your online file.

If you try to make a request to send letters and see that you are being charged the One-Time-Send rates, please try to Login to Letter Service Online using your CalNet ID to extend your student membership. If it does not extend you and you have already paid all your registration fees, contact the Letter Service at (510) 642-1716.

UC Alumni Reactivation

  3. After payment, go to the Main Menu and select "UC Alumni Reactivation." Then select "Purchase Now" to complete the process.

You will also receive a confirmation of reactivation and your Career Center ID number, which you need for your alumni login. Please write this number down and keep it in a safe place.
  4. You may then proceed to make online requests. You can verify that your expiration date has been updated by viewing the Registration section of your online file.
