There are various services the Office of Alumni Relations provides to our alumni whether you live close to campus or across the globe.
Lobozzo Alumni House
Your home away from home on RIT’s campus! The Joseph M. Lobozzo '95 Alumni House is the first alumni-centric facility on campus designed to meet several community needs. Whether you're just popping by, meeting a friend, coaching a student, conducting some research, or celebrating a life moment "RIT Style," the Lobozzo Alumni House is the place for you!
Library Services
Do you need to do professional or academic research? Read the news? Review trade journals? As a graduate, you'll enjoy privileges with the Wallace Library by having access to select library databases. In addition to the select Proquest database, you also have access to other resources which do not require authentication. Access is supported financially by your Office of Alumni Relations. To gain this Library privilege you must create an RIT account if you don't already have one, since you will need to use your username and password to connect to these valuable resources.
Recreational Facilities
Do you need to get in shape or stay fit? RIT offers alumni exclusive, low-cost memberships to recreation facilities on campus including the Gordon Field House and Aquatics Center and Hale-Andrews Student Life Center, a state-of-the-art recreation facility with a 16,000 square foot fitness center for you to take advantage of.
Admissions Vouchers
Do you know a high school senior that would thrive and excel at RIT? This is your opportunity to recruit the best for your alma mater. You can give a college-bound student of your choice a fee-waived application for undergraduate admission. By encouraging a student to apply, you can share your RIT experiences with a prospective student, while helping to defray the cost of applying to the university.
