Class Notes

We've all had a chance to travel life's path in different ways: incredible stories to tell, fun adventures to reveal, milestones to share, and lessons learned. The updated Class Notes section on alumni.harvard.edu is the perfect vehicle to let all your classmates know what is new with you.

Please note that Class Notes are separate from the Harvard College Class Reports ("Red Books"). More information about submitting to the Red Books can be found here.

Submitting a Class Note

  • Log in to the alumni.harvard online community using your HarvardKey. If you have not yet done so, you can claim your HarvardKey here. If you have forgotten your HarvardKey password, you can retrieve it here.
  • On the left hand navigation, click Alumni Class Notes.
  • Click on a Harvard School on the list.
  • Click the blue "Submit a note" button.
  • After entering your note, select any categories that apply.
  • If desired, upload an image (in JPG, GIF, or PNG formats only) by clicking the "Upload Photo" button.
  • Check the box consenting to display your note on the website and/or in any associated media.
  • Click either "Preview" to preview your note or "Post Note" to post it.

Please note that it will take 15–20 minutes for your Class Note to appear after you submit it.

In addition to alumni.harvard.edu's Class Notes, class notes are published in a number of alumni publications across the University. Harvard Magazine no longer prints alumni notes for professional school alumni, unless they are also affiliated with Harvard College, Radcliffe College, or the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences. Harvard alumni wishing to submit class notes to more than one publication will need to contact each publication separately.
