Empower your alumni to stay deeply connected, give back, and support the next generation of students starting today.
Why Institutions Choose Raftr
Level the Playing Field: Centralize checklists, events, and resources to support first-gen and underrepresented students.
Unify the Digital Core: Centralize checklists, events, and peer support into a single, branded home that evolves with every student.
Bridge the Engagement Gap: Raftr is the connective tissue that carries students from their first acceptance letter to their first alumni donation.
Generate Actionable Insights: Use community analytics to identify at-risk students, track resource usage, and refine your engagement strategy.
Data-Driven Success
Real-time Insights: Gain real-time visibility into the health of your community. Identify disengaged cohorts and intervene before they become “at-risk” statistics.
Monitor What Matters: As Joe Montgomery (NC A&T) notes, you can “actually see the results” because you can look in the tool and monitor engagement as it happens.
Campaign Intelligence: Track the performance of specific outreach efforts and checklists to see which resources are driving the most student action.
Students want to find their community before arriving on campus…[and] we needed to better showcase the student experience and the AUP magic, even from afar.
Now, with Raftr, we have a one-stop shop that’s reduced repetitive inquiries and created a vibrant space for engagement – both with students and with our staff. It’s only our first full cycle with the team, but already, a significant portion of admitted students have joined—and our yield rate within the app is well above our institutional average.

“At ASU, we wanted to solve a specific problem – we call it: the ping pong effect. A student is bounced around campus, navigating different systems (Advising, CRM, LMS, SIS) as they struggle to discover the business of being a student. We wanted to provide a single pane of glass to all individuals, without having to jump between digital systems. For us, that solution is Raftr.“
