The Waseda University Alumni Association was founded in 1885, and since then has been active throughout Japan and around the world. At Waseda University, graduates are called Alumnus.

What is alumni network "Tomonkai"?

"Tomonkai" refers to Waseda University's Alumnus organization. Currently, about 1,400 Tomonkai are active, including domestic and international regions Tomonkai, job areas Tomonkai by industry and company, and seminars Tomonkai. The bonds of Tomonkai are a powerful help in providing support and exchanging information in local and overseas areas.

Stay connected to Waseda even after graduation

The annual committee, selected from among all those graduating this year, will coordinate the holding of the annual Tomonkai, which will serve as the same group's meeting. "The Annual Tomonkai 5th Anniversary Festival'' is held on the 5th year of graduation. In subsequent milestone years, the university will invite you to "Homecoming Day"!

Another must-have item is the Waseda Card, a "second student ID" for alumni. This card is issued by Waseda University in partnership with a credit card company. 0.5% of the amount spent is returned to the university, which helps support current students in the form of Scholarship, and it also offers various benefits such as a wedding congratulatory telegram service.

The "Annual Tomonkai 5th Anniversary Festival" is scheduled to be held in 2029 (left). There will also be benefits such as preferential treatment at participating Waseda Card stores (right).
