Armenian American Alumni Chapter


Welcome to the Armenian American Alumni Chapter! 


WHO WE ARE: The Armenian American Alumni Chapter has a deep commitment of collaboration within the UC Irvine community. Over the last five years, we developed strong relationships with our vibrant UCI Armenian Student Association (ASA), our esteemed Armenian UCI professors, the UCI Center for Armenian Studies and the greater Armenian American Anteater community through live and virtual programs.

WHY SUPPORT CHAPTER SCHOLARSHIPS: We strive to continue strengthening the student and alumni relationship which includes fundraising for student scholarships. Since 2021, the Armenian American Alumni Chapter has awarded 12 scholarships to incoming UC Irvine students. Created with donations from alumni and Anteater friends, book scholarships provide greater financial security and the opportunity to connect almost immediately with their alumni network.

Our scholarship recipients at the Annual UC Irvine Alumni Association Scholars Dinner in November 2024. Collectively, the alumni chapters awarded over 35+ Anteaters with scholarships!

This 2025 Giving Day, help us achieve our goal of raising $2,000 for student scholarships and awarding even more Anteaters!
