UK Alumni Group
One New York Community
The connecting hub for UK university and school alumni in New York and the Tri-state area.
Who We Are
We are the UK Alumni Group of New York (UKAG), a volunteer network that connects UK university and school alumni groups across New York and the Tri-state area. We were founded in 2010 in collaboration with the British Council, and we continue to share its aim of building connections between the UK and the wider world through education.
We work as a coordinating layer above individual alumni chapters: pooling audiences so events reach a good size, sharing venues and ideas, and helping organizers put on more of what alumni actually turn up for.
We are institution-agnostic. We work alongside individual alumni offices and chapters, adding to what they do.
A Wider Community
Individually, a university’s alumni group in New York can be small; together, UK alumni are a large and active community. We bring that community into one room.
A Fuller Calendar
By coordinating across chapters, we help promote or host a steady stream of high-quality events — well run and worth attending — from networking and speaker sessions to informal socials.
Built by Organizers, for Organizers
We exist to help share the load among the volunteers who run alumni groups, not to add to it.
Looking for Something to Do?
From quarterly happy hours to speaker evenings and informal get-togethers, there's usually something on. Every event is open to alumni from every UK institution, and friends are welcome too.
