Alumni Chapters

Alumni Chapters (formerly known as Networks) exist in metro areas where a large concentration of alumni are living.


The UWF Alumni Association supports regional alumni chapters throughout the country that foster local connections to the UWF community. Led by local alumni volunteer leaders, regional chapters offer opportunities for UWF alumni, parents, students, and friends to connect with each other and the University where they live through a variety of programming and events.

There are many ways to support UWF no matter where you live:

  • Attend in-person alumni chapter events or UWF-sponsored virtual events/webinars.
  • Hire new graduates and fellow alumni
  • Recommend UWF to prospective students
  • Provide an internship for current students
  • Support UWF's Annual Giving

Make sure your contact information is up to date with the Alumni Association to get invitations to your local chapter's events! Visit the Events Calendar for a full list of upcoming in-person and virtual events.
