Alumni

The George Washington University (GW) and the Columbian College of Arts and Sciences welcome graduates of the Corcoran School of the Arts and Design to its vibrant and connected network of more than 270,000 alumni living in all 50 states and more than 100 countries around the world.

Alumni of the Corcoran College play a key role in preserving and strengthening the Corcoran legacy and ensuring its bright future. We invite Corcoran graduates to become engaged members of the GW community by participating in our regional, international and affinity alumni networks, connecting with current Corcoran School students through our student alumni programs and career services, and staying in touch with Corcoran School faculty, academic departments and programs.

Corcoran graduates can also provide philanthropic leadership in ways large and small to enable the Corcoran School to achieve the next level of excellence.

We look forward to having you as part of the GW alumni community. For more information on GW alumni benefits, such as course audit, and how to get involved, please visit GW Alumni.
