Alumni Benefits

As lifetime members of the College, all our alumni can enjoy a range of benefits at Wolfson.

Alumni

Attend College events

As Wolfson alumni, you are always welcome to attend College events, including talks, seminars, and society events, the May Ball, the May Bumps, Alumni Reunions, and the Easter Market & Boat Race. We send out event reminders via the Ring True and What's On newsletters.

If you'd like to organise your own event at Wolfson, or a reunion meet-up elsewhere in the world, please contact the Alumni team (alumni@wolfson.cam.ac.uk) and we will be happy to assist you.

Dine at Formal Halls

Alumni, former postdocs, and former Fellows are all able to return to College for Formal Halls, and book up to three guests each.

Stay in College accommodation

Wolfson alumni can book College accommodation at a discounted price, including double en-suite rooms in the Chancellor’s Centre, as well as single rooms in other locations outside of term time. Please note that all rooms provided are subject to availability.

Contribute to our Interdisciplinary Research Hubs

At Wolfson College, research thrives beyond disciplinary boundaries. The vibrant Wolfson College Research Network (WCRN) and Societies are the catalyst for interdisciplinary collaboration, bringing together Fellows, students, alumni and external partners to tackle the most pressing global challenges.
