Get Involved

Graduation doesn’t have to mean the end of your connection to USF. There are a number of ways you can participate with USF that will benefit you and our students. From coast to coast, we offer opportunities to connect in person and online. Take a look at the many ways to get involved through our Alumni Admission Ambassador Program.

The NetworkUSF Networking Hub offers alumni and students the opportunity to connect with one another for career conversations anywhere, at any time. Alumni and students can search for an alumna/us in the system based on their own specific criteria, including; location, industry, company, expertise, USF major, or even personal hobbies and interests. The Networking Hub facilitates brief connections with no commitment expectation. You can choose to connect with alumni for the purpose of general networking or for an informational interview.

Flash mentoring is a flexible, one-time interaction between a USF alum (mentor) and a student or alum (mentee) designed to provide quick, focused guidance on a specific topic or question. Unlike traditional mentoring relationships, flash mentoring doesn’t require a long-term commitment—it’s a brief, impactful exchange that can happen over email, phone, video, or in person. Through NetworkUSF, alumni can share career details on their public profile to help others learn from their professional journey. Mentees can browse these profiles, find someone they would like to connect with, and send a thoughtful request. Once a request is received, mentors can easily review, accept, reschedule, or decline through the platform inbox.

Whether you’re seeking advice on career transitions, grad school decisions, or industry insights, flash mentoring makes it easy to connect and learn—one conversation at a time.
 

The University of San Francisco Alumni Mentor Program (AMP) brings together alumni with students for mutually beneficial career advancement and community building. The program inspires excellence by providing alumni an important way to stay connected and by giving students new opportunities to build their network.

USFs affinity and identity groups provide alumni with the opportunity to connect based on an area of shared interest. Our current affinity and identity groups include the Asia Pacific Alumni Network, Black Alumni Society, Latinx Alumni Society, and Pride Alumni Group for our LGBTQ+ community.

The Asia Pacific Alumni Network (APAN) Podcast is a series of conversations with USF alumni in the Asian American, Pacific Islander, and Native Hawaiian (AAPINH) community. We hear from alumni across multiple industries who share how USF impacted their careers and how their culture and heritage helped shape and inform who they are.

USF’s Alumni Professional Networks  connect professionals in Public Health, and Entrepreneurship. By joining the Public Health Alumni Professional Networks (PHAPN) or the Entrepreneurship Alumni Professional Network (EAPN), alumni gain access to exclusive networking, volunteering, and leadership opportunities, both in-person and through NetworkUSF. These groups are designed to help you expand your professional network, share your expertise, and make an impact in your field, all while supporting the university’s mission and values.

USF’s Alumni Regional Councils provide the USF community with an opportunity to stay connected with the alumni living and working in their region. Each Regional Chapter consists of a committee of alumni volunteers who foster community by hosting social, networking, and community service events, and supporting university-hosted events in that region.  To stay up to date on what is happening in your region, make sure to update your home address with us.  To get more involved, we invite you to learn more about our Regional Chapters in the East Bay, on the Peninsula, New York, Southern California, Sacramento, and Seattle.
