Our alumni network is amongst the 50 most powerful in the country

Recently Syracuse was ranked #49 in the 50 Most Powerful Alumni Networks list compiled by Best College Values.  

Factors that determined the list included alumni financial contributions (a sign of loyalty and willingness to help future students), employment rate post MBA programs, percent of employment through career services, students’ evaluation of how helpful the alumni network is, and the school’s reputation.

Our overall score was: 17.76

So how did we make the rankings?

Syracuse has had many firsts, including the first-degree program for arts. Because a huge percentage of alumni reside in NYC, so many opportunities have opened for students in journalism, communications, entertainment and business.

What makes Syracuse’s Orange Network different from other alumni associations is that it is committed to ongoing learning and mentorship to guide every alumnus to their full capability.
