Get Involved! Join the Alumni Council.
The Delaware Valley University Alumni Council is a leadership group of alumni volunteers. The Council supports the University’s overall alumni engagement and philanthropic efforts. We're looking for interested alumni from a diverse representation of class years and programs, geographic regions, and interests to join the Alumni Council as representatives this fall. Alumni Council representatives serve for a three-year term and are elected by the alumni at large.
Interested in serving?
Please fill out the 2024 Interest Form
Please note that the information you enter on this form will be used for the official ballot, so please fill out the form carefully and thoroughly. A member of the Alumni Council’s Nominating, Membership and Credentials Committee will contact you to further discuss your interest in the Council and the expectations of members. After these discussions, interested and qualified nominees will be placed on an electronic ballot that will be sent to all alumni for voting.
In addition to representative positions, the position of Alumni Council President is also up for nominations this fall and is open to current members of the Alumni Council. More information about the role of the President can be found on the Interest Form.
Service on the Alumni Council is a meaningful way to engage with your alma mater and, one that is greatly appreciated by Delaware Valley University. Thank you for your interest!
