Benefits for active, dues-paying members

VCU Alumni adopted a nondues, all-inclusive membership model Jan. 1, 2018, meaning all alumni now receive perks just for being a graduate (learn more about the new alumni model). Some benefits require you to be logged into the alumni website. If you don’t already have a username and password, register for one now. Current Annual members retain access to certain member-only benefits for the remainder of their membership. 

Download the VCU Alumni app to take your benefits with you, wherever you go.
