# Alumni Forwarding > Alumni Forwarding is an enterprise email forwarding service for universities and colleges. We enable institutions to provide lifetime @school.edu email addresses to alumni at a fraction of the cost of Google Workspace or Microsoft 365. ## About Alumni Forwarding is a product of DuoCircle LLC, trusted since 2014. We have migrated over 16 million mailboxes for educational institutions worldwide. Our infrastructure handles email forwarding with full SPF, DKIM, DMARC, and ARC authentication, enterprise spam protection, and 99% uptime SLA. ## What We Do Alumni keep their university email address (e.g., jane@alumni.school.edu) for life. When someone sends email to that address, we forward it to the alumni member's personal inbox (Gmail, Yahoo, Outlook, etc.). No mailbox is hosted — we forward in real-time with no message storage. ## Who We Serve - Universities and colleges of all sizes - Alumni associations - Advancement and development departments - University IT departments ## Key Features - Lifetime alumni email forwarding - Self-service portal for alumni to update their forwarding address - Enterprise security: SOC 2 Type II, HECVAT, FERPA compliance support - Full email authentication: SPF, DKIM, DMARC, ARC, SRS - Multiple data import methods: Web interface, CSV upload, REST API, direct admin - SSO/SAML integration for admin authentication - Full log export to Splunk or any SIEM endpoint - White-glove onboarding and hypercare support - Custom integration development - 24/7 technical support ## Pricing Annual pricing by institution size: - Small College (10,000 alumni accounts): $1,432/year - Mid-Size University (25,000 accounts): $2,872/year - Large University (75,000 accounts): $8,370/year - Major Institution (150,000 accounts): $11,332/year - 300,000+ accounts: Contact us for custom pricing Add-ons: - Additional domains: $696/year per domain - Self-service portal: $1,800/year - Growth blocks (1,000 additional accounts): $100/block All plans include: enterprise spam protection, email authentication (SPF/DKIM/DMARC), real-time analytics, 24/7 support, admin interface, API access, and global infrastructure. ## How It Works 1.
