The University College Alumni Association (UCAA) is the official representative of all students that have graduated from University College Utrecht (UCU). Since the graduation of the first 17 UCU students in 2000, the UCU alumni population has grown to 2324 alumni in 2013, spread all over the world.

The Association was officially founded by a couple of alumni in December 2001. These alumni formed the foundation of what has grown to an established network of UCU alumni, where the UCAA seeks to demonstrate the importance of alumni, advise UCU on alumni policy, and ensure alumni bonds.

The objective of the UCAA is to preserve the connection between alumni and the College, thereby also providing current UCU students with a valuable source of information and an accessible alumni network.

Next to various other events, the main projects of the UCAA include the Alumni New Year’s Drinks, the Alumni PubqQuiz, Graduation BBQ and alumni drinks in various cities throughout the world. The UCAA cooperates with College Hall, UCU teachers and staff, University College Student’s Association (UCSA) and the Academic Students Council (ASC) to integrate students and alumni in their activities. Additionally, the UCAA appoints regional representatives to the various cities.

Alumni are updated on the whereabouts and activities of their fellow alumni and interesting events by means of the regular newsletters by e-mail and through our social media channels Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter. Although many of our events take place on or near UCU campus, regular alumni drinks are organised in The Hague, Amsterdam, Paris, London, Oxford and Brussels.

The UCAA deems it important to function successfully as a professional alumni network accessible to all UCU alumni. In order to succeed at that, input and cooperation from all our alumni is highly appreciated.
