Joining the alumni community - next steps for students about to leave Oxford.

Alumni graphic

Welcome

It’s almost time for you to join our alumni community – a unique global network of remarkable people, connected by Oxford and working to create positive impact worldwide. As Oxford alumni, you continue to be a vital part of the University. We invite you to continue to learn and engage with fellow alumni wherever you may be.

Firstly, we want to congratulate you on everything you’ve achieved. This is an exciting milestone, and we can’t wait to see what you do next. From new careers and further study to travel, entrepreneurship and public service, the paths that Oxford graduates pursue are as broad and diverse as the community itself. You can read below how one recent graduate, Carys, navigated her first few years as an alumna.

Whether you already know what’s next or are still deciding, we look forward to hearing about it at the Leavers' Fair (details below) – and remember, our careers service is here to help both now and after you graduate.

The Leavers' Fair

Join us at the Leavers' Fair during June time at Oxford Town Hall to pick up your pre-ordered card and for so much more:

🎁 Exclusive freebies

📷 Professional headshots

🎵 Live performances

🛒 Discounts and benefits

🌏 Alumni groups sign-up

🍦 Free ice cream

After you complete your course

We'll email you later in the summer to get you set up with an alumni online account. From there, you'll be able to update your contact details, access exclusive discounts and order an alumni card if you weren't able to collect one at the fair.

You'll then be able to sign up for events, networks and groups to start to meet the rest of our global community.

You can explore our groups network here:

Alumna Carys Hoggan

How one recent graduate navigated her first few years as an alumna.

'I think a lot of people really want to do something meaningful but get het up with what this should look like and how they do it. My advice is to just find something you're passionate about.'
