¹û¶³´«Ã½AA Membership
Annual or Life Membership - Any person who has been awarded a degree, licentiate, diploma or certificate in any Faculty of The ¹û¶³´«Ã½ or of The University College of the West Indies may apply. This is the only category eligible for nomination to Executive Positions and has full voting rights. All Main Campus and Open Campus certificates, diplomas and degrees, no matter the length of study, qualify an individual as a "graduate" and therefore make them eligible for this category of membership.
Associate Membership - Any person who has completed one academic year may qualify however this request will be taken to Council by the Alumnus Representative through the Institutional Advancement Division. These members do not have the right to hold executive office. Graduates of other recognized Universities may have Associate Membership.
Honorary Membership - Persons who hold Honorary Degrees from ¹û¶³´«Ã½ qualify. Chapters may grant Honorary Membership. They may attend meetings but may not vote.
Group Membership - Alumni may form affiliated groups based on graduating class, disciplines, geographic area or other common characteristics. Such groups fall under the "umbrella" country chapter and may only be represented on the Central Executive Committee through their local "umbrella" chapters. They may operate independently however the President of the Group is automatically an Executive Member of the Campus Country Chapter. All such alumni groups and sub-groups MUST register with the Institutional Advancement Division (IAD) Office of the Vice Chancellor who will advise the Campus Country Chapter and enter them into the records of the University. Chapters who have not registered are not authorised to do so and not recognised by the ¹û¶³´«Ã½AA or the University.
REPLACEMENT ¹û¶³´«Ã½AA CARDS
If your ¹û¶³´«Ã½AA Life, Annual or Associate Membership card is lost or stolen you can replace it. Check with your local ¹û¶³´«Ã½AA chapter as replacement costs vary.
