At Chowan, each student’s education is personalized—but they’re never on their own. Will you join us in preparing the next generation of students soar to new heights?

Your Alumni Association is comprised of over 15,000 members. Some of Chowan’s alumni may have an associate’s degree while others have a bachelor’s degree or a terminal degree (Master’s). This massive membership is a network of professional contacts who all have the same background – Chowan. This is your opportunity to build long-term relationships through a variety of programs and services, the Alumni Association works with alumni around the world to ensure you carry Chowan pride wherever you go. As a graduate of Chowan, we want to hear how you are making an impact in your community and in your part of the world.

However you choose to give, you’ll make a difference.
