Discover the New Era of UCI Reunions

UC Irvine proudly unveils a reimagined reunion program that transcends traditional class gatherings. We now celebrate the diversity of our Anteater community through specialized events for various affinity groups. In collaboration with our campus schools and units, we’re crafting unique reunion experiences each year that highlight the shared interests and connections of our alumni.

This new chapter of reunions is not just an event; it is a way to reconnect with your alma mater, whether engaging with an affinity group or your school. Join us as we honor our past, connect in the present, and anticipate the future with reunions as vibrant as the UCI spirit.

Reunite. Relive. Reinspire.
