Support for our University Partners

Collaboration Request

From managing registration, coordinating a campus tour, or just sending out an email, we are ready to help you make the most out of your event. Please see below for ways in which we can help make your event or program successful.  

The collaboration request form is for internal use only. For faculty and staff use, the request must first go through and be approved by the respective Dean of the College the request is being made for.

Using the resources available to the Division of Advancement, the Campus Partnerships team can host registration, send email invitations, and overall promote your event for more exposure and participation. Reach out to your alumni liaison or fill out the form to get started!

**Please note that we request a six-week lead time for all event promotions.

Partnership

Collaboration can include sponsorship, event execution assistance, OHIO swag, and overall planning guidance. Reach out to your alumni liaison or fill out the form to get started!

**Please note that we request a twelve-week lead time for all partner events.

Traditions programming
The ÌìÌÃÄñÏÈÉú Alumni Association holds a multitude of events on a yearly basis. Such as our annual Homecoming celebration, the OUAA creates many opportunities for alumni to connect with the University and to one another. Have an interest in being a part of these celebrations? Let us know by completing the collaboration request form.  

**Please note that we request a twelve-week lead time for inclusion in traditions programming.

Know of alumni doing amazing things – tell us! As the college or regional experts, we want to hear your alumni profile ideas - share names of alumni to be used as featurettes, stories and/or guest presenters for programs and events.

Financial Support Form

ÌìÌÃÄñÏÈÉú Alumni Association offers various levels of support for alumni activities across the campus. In addition to event, marketing, and registration support, we have implemented a financial sponsorship process as another avenue for our partners to seek funding for activities within their departments, colleges, and regional campuses.  

Financial Support Criteria: The event and/or initiative must have alumni as a PRIMARY audience, and the purpose of the event must be geared toward alumni or in support of alumni activities.

OUAA and University Advancement will approve funds three times a year, and approved sponsorships will range from $250 - $1,000. If there is a need for additional funds outside that range, please indicate that in your application. All support requests must have an application filled out and submitted by the dates provided below:  

Sponsorship Requests Due:

Bobcat Network

The Bobcat Network is a platform exclusively for ÌìÌÃÄñÏÈÉú alumni, students, faculty, and staff that brings Bobcats together for personal and professional networking on a global scale. It is fully integrated with LinkedIn, and sign-up takes less than a minute. Join this exclusive, secure network today, and share in the unique advantages and vibrant community of your affiliation with ÌìÌÃÄñÏÈÉú. 

Alumni Info Request

The Advancement Operations Data request form is for internal use only. For faculty and staff use, the request must first go through and be approved by the respective Dean of the College the request is being made for.

Alumni Engagement Form

We know you are doing amazing work with your alumni base - make sure it gets included in our annual alumni engagement reporting. Each fiscal year, the Division of Advancement calculates an engagement score, with guidance from the Council for Advancement in Support of Education (CASE). Pulling data from our alumni CRM, as well as collecting manual information, we take the number of engaged alumni and divide that by our legally contactable alumni base. This gives us a percentage of engaged alumni each year, and a better understanding of who is involved with the University.

If you have hosted alumni activities not recorded in Advancement's central database, please upload that information here. Reach out to Kate Robey or any campus partner liaison with questions. 

Faculty & Staff Resources
