Use Handshake's event management tools to invite students to an event individually or as a group.
To make your event invite only, visit Events: Make an Event Invite Only.
Topics:
Invite a group of students
1. Click Events from the left navigation bar, then click the name of the event you want to invite students to.
2. Click the Invite Students tab in the upper-right corner of the event overview page.
3. Using the filters on the left side of the page, select the group of students you would like to invite. The pie charts on the right side of the page aggregate the data as students are selected and deselected.
4. Click the green Invite Users button when you are ready to send the invite.
Invited students will be notified in Handshake or via email, depending on their notification settings.
Note: If you have a student limit set on a school-hosted event and registrations are at capacity, students will be given an option to join the waitlist. For more information, visit Waitlists for Fairs & Events.
Invite a specific student
1. Click Events from the left navigation bar, then click the name of the event you want to invite the student to.
2. Click the Invite Students tab in the upper-right corner of the event overview page.
3. In the search bar, type the student's email address.
4. Click the green Invite button to send an invitation email to that student.
Note: Inviting a student does not register them for the event. To register a student directly, add them from the Overview tab.
Re-inviting students
If a student is invited to an event multiple times, they will only receive the initial invitation. If you are unsure whether you have already invited a group of students, you can re-invite them.
