The Chicago Alumni Network welcomes alumni, parents, and friends of UConn from  Northern Illinois.

Number of Alumni: 1,500+

Attend local events, support students and fellow alumni, or simply share your UConn pride through networks that offer meaningful ways to stay involved. As part of your local alumni network, you’re not just participating — you’re leading. You serve as an ambassador for UConn’s spirit, values, and excellence in your region. We may no longer be students, but we are Huskies Forever.

All we do is possible because of YOU

Give

You can make a difference by supporting University students through your gifts to the Because of UConn Scholarship fund.

Volunteer

Donating isn’t the only way to make an impact. The Chicago Alumni Network offers volunteer opportunities for alumni and friends of UConn.
