YOUR ALUMNI RESOURCES
Clearing Up the Alumni Experience
An alum is an individual who earns a degree from an institution or program, or successfully concludes a designated educational or supplemental program like a fellowship or apprenticeship.
Being an alum of AYS means that you are part of a life-long community comprised of professionals and like-minded individuals to whom you can reach out to when you’re looking for a job, looking to hire someone, or just need some advice.
Being an AYS alum goes beyond financial contributions; it’s about fostering impactful communities where each person can develop, flourish, and excel within and beyond the boundaries of their Georgia State experience.
We are committed to providing a wide array of engagement options to cater to diverse preferences among our alumni.
Our initiatives encompass a range of activities, such as networking happy hours, community service opportunities, alumni panels, and gameday experiences that aim to accommodate varied interests and participation styles.
AYS alumni have the privilege of accessing lifelong complimentary career services, including resume reviews, interview guidance, and specialized career advisement, among other benefits.
Furthermore, we provide our alumni with insights into industry-specific job openings, exclusive discounts for select GSU events, invitations to exclusive networking gatherings, and, of course, AYS swag!
AYS has an alumni network of over 14,000 accomplished individuals located in all 50 states and globally. Our alumni community is a true embodiment of belonging, encompassing a wide spectrum of backgrounds. AYS alumni hold positions of influence and service across sectors – public, nonprofit, private, and NGOs, and represent a rich tapestry of generations and ethnicities.
Every day, we grow prouder of how AYS alums impact their communities, and we cannot wait to see what comes next for you as you join our robust alumni community.
As a graduate of the Andrew Young School, you will epitomize the core values of servant leadership., and we look forward to you joining and contributing to this vibrant community of change agents.
By deepening your engagement with the AYS alumni network, you not only embody the essence of Georgia State’s mission, but you also purposefully choose to play a role in advancing positive global transformation.
Each alum possesses a distinct and valuable skill set, and through collective effort, we have the potential to create a supportive network that uplifts both present and future members of the Andrew Young School alumni community.
The journey of an AYS alum extends across your entire lifetime. From your initial acceptance into the institution to years after your graduation, your affiliation with this esteemed policy school endures indefinitely.
We recognize that as you navigate life’s diverse landscape, you’ll encounter challenges and celebrate significant milestones, and our community stands steadfastly by your side throughout it all.
In essence, an alum’s journey resembles a marathon of experiences that shape the narrative of your story, one that you can continue to share with us…
The first step to alumni engagement is making sure that we stay connected. About a year after graduation, alumni lose access to their student.gsu.edu email. Stay connected by sharing your non-GSU email with us as soon as you become an alum. You can do that very quickly, by completing the form below.
Once connected, you’ll have access to further alumni resources, our events calendar, insights into our strategic goals, alumni communications, and more. We understand that embarking on your life after school might feel overwhelming, but our goal is to offer a welcoming environment to help you move forward one step at a time.
