Alumni & UWC Impact
After graduation, our students become part of the UWC alumni network. In this way they stay in contact as friends and community who live the mission. A recent study about UWC Alumni, led by Harvard Graduate School, shows the impact on UWC students after graduation:
Alumni Scholarship Campaign
We want to create more scholarship opportunities for youths from all over the world! UWC Red Cross Nordic has 2600 alumni, we have been doing our math and find that if everyone gave 1 cup of coffee per month (USD 2.70) to our scholarship program, you would be able to provide close to 3 scholarships a year.
With funding from Shelby Davis and the Dare2Dream 2.0 program, every new scholarship the school provides will release 25 000 USD to support another youth (up to 75 000 USD per year) – meaning that your 3 scholarships would release even more scholarships.
Released at this year’s Reunion, we now have more than 60 new subscribers. To reach our target, we need all of you!
Reunions
With more than 2,400 RCN alumni worldwide, we seek to stay in touch through our Facebook page, a monthly newsletter, the UWC Hub and social gatherings. Some of these are with National Committees, mainly in the Nordic region.
The Year Representatives get together every month for an electronic meeting with our Development and Alumni Relations Officer Mostak Rahman and the alumni representative on the Council, Ezequiel Jimenes. Feel free to join the next meeting: Find meeting dates and agendas on facebook and use this link for Open access to the meetings
Due to the pandemic, the planned reunions for 2020 and 2021 have been cancelled. We aim to host the next reunion on campus in 2022, in early August., for the generations of 2001/2002 and 2010/2011.
Alumni Login
The College database (w4) has an Alumni forum with up-to-date information on Alumni and (former) staff.
How to log onto the Alumni forum: An alumni’s username follows each student’s / former member of staff’s UWC id (nc-year of entry – first letter of 1st name – first 3 letters of 2nd name – for example, nc12rlam).
If you can’t remember or never had a password? Please click ‘reset password’ and you will be sent a new one to the email account registered in the database. If the email is incorrect you will be sent the email address of your Year Rep who will help you. Former members of staff will be sent the email address of the Development and Alumni Relations Officer who will can give you access.
