The community is geographically dispersed
Requiring a meeting or paper return can exclude the members an alumni body is meant to connect.
Für Alumni-Vereinigungen
Bring a dispersed alumni community into one credible election.
Verify eligibility, present candidates clearly, and let alumni vote privately from wherever they are without reducing the result to an unexplained total.
No card needed. Small votes can start on the free tier.
The governance problem
The count is only one part of a credible vote.
Alumni elections serve people across graduation years, chapters, countries, and changing contact details. The process has to establish who may vote without making participation burdensome.
Eligibility data is uneven
Graduation year, chapter, membership status, or another rule may need review before voting access is granted.
Candidates need room to be understood
Names alone do not give a broad community enough context for leadership choices.
A governed workflow
From eligible roll to published record
Create a clear path from alumni verification to an anonymous, checkable result.

Defensible benefits
Useful controls, stated without overclaiming.
The experience is designed to be understandable to occasional voters and manageable for a volunteer election team.
Candidate context
Profiles on the ballot
Candidate photos, details, and longer statements keep the information members need beside the choice itself.
Flexible eligibility
Questions that match your records
Custom registration fields can collect alumni number, graduation year, chapter, or other information your organisers need to review.
Visible integrity
A result that travels well
Public verification links let alumni inspect the outcome from anywhere without giving them access to private member data.
Eine ehrlich benannte Grenze
No database integration is implied
CharterVote provides configurable registration and organiser approval. It does not currently claim an automatic integration with a university alumni database, identity provider, or CRM.
Questions before you choose
Frequently asked questions
Can alumni candidates include a statement and photograph?
Yes. Candidate records support a photo, short details, and a longer statement that can be presented with the ballot.
Can we ask for graduation year or chapter?
Yes. Organisers can configure custom registration fields and review the submitted answers before approving voting access.
Can alumni vote from different countries?
The ballot is browser-based and available during the election's scheduled window. Organisers should choose opening and closing times that work for their community.
Does CharterVote connect directly to our alumni database?
No automatic alumni-database or CRM integration is claimed. Eligibility is handled through configurable registration fields and organiser review.
