Definitions:

Alumni: Defined as (a) all persons who have been admitted to any school or college of Carnegie Institute of Technology or Carnegie Mellon University, who have completed at least one semester of classes in a degree program, and who have left the University in good standing and (b) all persons who have received an Honorary Degree from the University.

Active: Defined as all alumni who maintain a current postal or e-mail address

E-mail Only: Indicates that the only contact information available is e-mail address

Alumni Interest Group: Any group of Carnegie Mellon alumni who share a common interest or bond and who desire to affiliate with each other as a sub-group of the Carnegie Mellon Alumni Association. Alumni Interest Groups are formed around at least one of the following criteria:

Former membership in an officially recognized student organization A shared personal characteristic (such as ethnicity, cultural background, or religion) A shared postgraduate professional experience (such as entrepreneurs, lawyers, doctors, etc.)

Chapter: Historically, “clan” was chosen to describe the regional alumni groups of the Carnegie Mellon Alumni Association, reflecting the Scottish heritage of Andrew Carnegie. In recent years, “chapter” is used with more frequency as new groups are formed. For ease of reference, “chapter” refers to both clans and chapters.

Honorary Alumni: For degree level, honorary alumni are counted within the “Non-Grad/Certificate” category; for degree college and preferred degree level, honorary alumni are within the “Other/Honorary” category
