Why do I need to do this?
Nest is meant for high-schoolers and younger. In order to prevent adults from joining Nest, Hack Club has setup a verification system which all Hack Club programs use to verify your academic status.
Please note: The nest administrators have no control over the verification process or your data. HCB Operations manage this. Nest only receives a "yes" or "no" if you are verified. If it is showing that you are not verified, the Nest administration team has no control over this.
Important: Also, you may have already completed some form of verification previously. Attempt to use Nest Bot before completing this step. If it does succeed, skip this guide and go back to the Quickstart guide
How do I verify?
Start by visiting forms.hackclub.com/eligibility. Prepare to have the following ready:
- Your name
- Birthday
- Highest education level (high school, middle school, college, or neither)
- Proof of academic status (see below)
What counts as proof of academic status?
Depending on your country, you'll need to submit the following:
🇺🇸 United States, 🇸🇬 Singapore, 🇦🇺 Australia, 🇨🇦 Canada: Both School ID AND report card OR a government issued ID (drivers's license, passport, etc)
🇮🇳 India: Aadhaar card OR passport. For Aadhaar cards, you will need to send the encrypted PDF instead of an image of the card.
🇬🇧 United Kingdom: A dated school ID OR government issued ID (driver's license, passport, etc)
🏁 Other countries: Government issued ID (driver's license, passport, etc)
What do I do after being verified?
You can now complete your Nest registration! Go back to the Quickstart guide and complete your verification.
Hack Club keeps the document you used to verify with on file in order to prevent fraud and to complete level 2 verification. If you wish for Hack Club to delete the documents, please E-mail hcb@hackclub.com with your request. Your Nest account will not be deleted if you do this.
Note: If you graduate high-school after joining Hack Club, you can still continue to use Nest.
