About

Together, we built IU

When a devastating fire in 1854 threatened the very existence of Indiana University, our alumni banded together to help the university rebuild—creating the foundation for the IU Alumni Association in the process.

We’ve been IU’s staunchest supporters ever since, leading efforts to grow the university, extend its reach, and provide educational opportunities for the best and brightest students.

Today, our organization is stronger and more vibrant than ever.

It’s our job to keep nearly 775,000 IU graduates connected to each other and the university we all love through live events, webinars, scholarship programs, and seriously fun traditions.

Making connections online and in real life

Whether you graduated three years or three decades ago, we know you like to keep tabs on your friends and peers.

We make it easier by sending you the biannual Indiana University Alumni Magazine, keeping you in the loop with a comprehensive online alumni directory, and making it simple to find the IU alumni association chapters and groups in your area.

We also maintain a busy social calendar, ensuring there are IU events near you.

And for those of you who like to travel? We’ve got you covered, too. Take an IU Alumni Association trip and see the world—in the company of fellow hoosiers, of course.

160+chapters and groups around the world

50+group vacations offered through IU Travels

Hundredsof opportunities to get involved throughout the year

Helping our IU family to get ahead

On its own, the IU alumni network is a powerful tool that can help you advance your career.

Our career coaching and other professional development services amplify that effect. Whether you need help putting your best foot forward on a job search or just a little extra guidance, we’ve got your back.

We also offer a number of scholarships programs for aspiring IU family members. Some are exclusively for the children of alumni, but others are available to a broader contingent of prospective students.

Together, we can make a difference

Our time, talent, and treasure will help our alma mater succeed on a grand scale.
