Resources for Calvin graduates
Alumni Association
After you graduate, the Calvin Alumni Association—some 57,000 members strong—is poised to welcome you. Join our new alumni Web community, uKnight, for powerful career networking tools. There are over 30 alumni chapters across the U.S. and Canada in which to get involved. Plus, the Alumni Association will send you Spark, the quarterly alumni magazine, and other Calvin publications and invitations.

Career Development offers a job listing resource in collaboration with NACE (National Association of Colleges and Employers) and the DirectEmployers Association. Calvin College students and alumni seeking jobs will benefit from a variety of helpful features and functionality:
- Detailed search mechanism for part-time and full-time positions.
- Online storage of up to ten resumes, ten cover letters, and ten other job search-related documents, including self-reported transcripts, writing samples, graphics, etc.
- On-line job applications. Submit your resume and cover letter directly to employers via CalvinLink

Information Technology
You will have access to Knightvision as a "graduate" from June 1 until October 1, 2009. This provides you with access to your grades/transcripts for a few months after graduation.
Your student computer account, including your present Calvin e-mail account, is active until October 1, 2009. At that time, your student e-mail account will be removed from the system. Any e-mail or saved files you want to keep should be transferred to another computer or e-mail account before then.
Health Services
Health Services can provide you with an up-to-date immunization record—something that comes in handy for graduate school applications, for certain job requirements, or for future medical history questions. To request this record, e-mail health@calvin.edu and include the following information: your name, student ID number, local address, and phone number. Please submit your request by April 1, 2009. Students may also stop by Health Services to pick up their immunization history.
