Once a part of Hofstra, always a part of Hofstra. Wherever life takes you, Hofstra is still your home, in your corner, and on your side.

A group of people dressed in business casual attire pose together and smile in front of a blue Hofstra University backdrop at an indoor event. Some are holding drinks and name tags are visible on several people.

As a member of a global network of alumni, your Hofstra experience continues well beyond graduation. By joining an affinity or regional group, you’ll connect with fellow alumni who share your professional interests, personal passions, or geographic ties. Whether you’re looking to expand your network, contribute to meaningful initiatives, or build lasting friendships, we have a place for you. Welcome!

Connect

Your gift advances student success, fosters innovative interdisciplinary programs, enhances organizational agility, and strengthens community engagement—priorities outlined in Hofstra 100, the University’s strategic plan. Be part of Hofstra’s next chapter.
