General FAQs

I recently donated to the Annual Fund. Does that make me a member of the Alumni Association?
No. Although we are grateful that you support Chowan, giving to the Annual Fund does not make you a member of the Alumni Association. The Alumni Association is a dues-based organization that supports Chowan and its alumni family through scholarships, events to socialize and network, student services and much more. To join or get more information, call 252.398.6226. You can also join or renew online with our secured server.

Can people join the Alumni Association if they didn’t graduate from Chowan?
Yes. Membership is open to all alumni, faulty, staff and students of Chowan. Alumni include all former students, including those who did not receive a degree. You can read more about membership and its benefits in the membership section. You can also join online with our secured server. For more information about membership, call 252.398.6226 or contact Mike Temple.

Can I pay my Alumni Association dues through the Annual Fund?
No. Membership dues must be paid directly to the Alumni Association. In fact, even if you’re making a gift to the Annual Fund and paying your membership dues at the same time, you’re asked to send two separate checks (you can use the same envelope) to meet university accounting and audit requirements.

Can I pay my Alumni Association dues online?
Yes. Just visit our online join/renew form and have your credit card ready.

Can I pay membership dues or program fees with a credit card?
Yes. You may join online with our secured server or print out the PDF form and fax your membership information to 252.398.3204. Please include your card number and expiration date.

Can the Alumni Online Directory be used for solicitations?
No. Use of directory information for any commercial, political or solicitation purpose is expressly prohibited. If you suspect that your information was misused please let us know by sending an e-mail to Mike Temple at templm@chowan.edu. The contact information for alumni is currently undergoing development for online access. Hardbound directories are available from Mike Temple.

How can I get more involved in the Alumni Association?
