Alumni List Request

Process
* Submit request along with the purpose and use of the list to the alumni association (students@alumni.northwestern.edu)
* Wait approximately 10-14 days for processing, see turnaround time section below.
* List is returned to student group.

Turnaround time
* It will take 10 -14 days for your student organization to receive the list from the NAA.

General formatting
* You may ask for specific information, such as home or work address, email or phone.
* We may show degree information (school, year, major), except where prohibited by FERPA.
* You may request an Excel file or labels.
* We can only release information that is not controlled by privacy request.
* We can increase efficiency in this process by considering first what information we want to see. This will save time and "re-runs" of the list.

Blackout periods
During peak operating times, the above turnaround time will be adjusted. Most generally, these times are in accordance with end of the year gift processing, commencement times and new student entry times.

Usage
Alumni data is not be used for fundraising purposes unless approved by the Development office. Make sure you obtain approval from the development office otherwise the NAA will revoke your database access privileges.

Student Groups
If you are a student group requesting a list, you must provide a list of all active members. This ensures that we will be able to provide updated lists to future groups.
