Black Alumni Community

The UCF Black Alumni Community connects and celebrates our Black alumni within the broader UCF Alumni network. Whether it’s a group of Knights bound together by their passion for their field of study or UCF fans far from home looking for black-and-gold-wearing friends to cheer alongside,  alumni groups are the perfect avenue to stay connected with fellow alumni.

Signature Programs and Events

1969 Club Alumni Mentorship Program
The 1969 Club Alumni Mentorship Program aims to prepare students for a successful future and create a lasting impact on the UCF community.
What sets this program apart? Students and alumni are matched based on professional development skills that the student has a desire to learn and the alumnus/a has the expertise to teach. Whether it is networking, resume review or how to nail that next interview, this program is designed to be a meaningful experience that helps you develop and hone marketable skills.
The 1969 Club Mentorship Program is open to all students and alumni.
Signature events will be announced at a future date.
All of the events and programs of the UCF Black Alumni Community are open to all UCF graduates who are interested in participating.
