As the 500+ students in the purple Class of 2022 prepare for what comes next, we’re asking you to show our soon-to-be alums that one thing remains constant: the incredible support and camaraderie of the global Wellesley community. 

Wellesley Reunion 2022 will take place on June 3-5. Alums in classes ending in 2 and 7 are invited to reconnect and reminisce with classmates on campus. Registration is open from April 6 until April 25 and must be completed during this period as there is no walk-in option available.

Join Wellesley for a virtual summit on April 1 and 2 bringing together researchers, policymakers, business leaders, and advocates from around the world to understand what drives gender-based economic inequality and to articulate a powerful agenda for building a future with women’s needs and aspirations at the center.

Wellesley College offers a number of fellowships and scholarships to alumnae for graduate/professional study and research, purposeful travel, service work, and more. 

The Wellesley College Alumnae Association is hosting a virtual Faculty Speaker Series that will take place monthly throughout the academic year. Lecture times will vary to make live participation accessible in a variety of time zones.

The Washington Wellesley Club and the WCAA welcomed hundreds of alums to the Peppermint Pie Class on December 15. The virtual lesson from Victoria Lai '01 of DC's Ice Cream Jubilee was declared in the chat to be "the best Zoom of the year."

In lieu of in-person Stepsinging this fall, the Alumnae Association has created a digital experience showcasing the history and music of one of Wellesley’s oldest traditions. 

Announcing Honorees

Three outstanding Wellesley women have been named as the 2020 Alumnae Achievement Award recipients.

It is with great disappointment that we have canceled Reunion 2020, which would have been held on campus June 5-7.

Across the country, Wellesley alumnae of all ages are helping each other in response to the coronavirus pandemic: They are dropping off groceries and prescriptions, easing the adverse effects of social distancing, and compiling lists of local businesses that offer online orders and curbside pick-up.

We invite you to explore this site and information about Wellesley College Alumnae Association groups, class activities, local area gatherings, and ways to stay connected virtually.
