Next Steps
Santa Clara alumni communities are located throughout the world and gather by region, identity, and industry. Keeping your mailing address and other information updated with us is key so we can let you know about events and engagement programs in your area (and with your industry and identity-based groups!).
Graduating Seniors: to help capture your journey at Santa Clara, the Alumni Association is providing a virtual class book just for you. We hope it will provide a meaningful way to celebrate your accomplishments and stay connected with your 2020 or 2021 classmates. Tell a story, relive a memory, reflect on what SCU means to you, and share your plans for the future.
Grand Reunion Weekend is the perfect time to show off your new alumni status! Come back October 12 - 15, 2023 in celebration of your class and fellow Broncos in reunion years. Don't miss the special Grad Party for you and your class year. It's sure to be a blast!
P.S. If you are the Class of 2021, we are also putting together a time capsule for your class—be sure to submit your favorite photos, include a letter to your classmates, or drop off your favorite Bronco keychain to be included!
