Yes, we are one of those more conservative schools. We do the following:
- Alumni, Degreed – received a four year undergraduate degree
- Alumni, Non-Degreed – back in the day this was given to people more frequently, typically around the wars (WWII, Korea, and Vietnam) when folks got drafted or enlisted and never came back to finish their degreed. From about the year 2000 forward you are only awarded this constituency if you die as a student
- IDP, Degreed – received a four year undergraduate degree through our individualized degree program for non-traditionally aged students
- IDP, Non-Degreed – We’ve got less than 5 of these and as of my last look most are not living
- Master’s Degreed – received a master’s degree
- Honorary – received an honorary degree from the college (we track externally awarded honorary degrees in a different area)
- V12 – were part of an 18 month engineering program at the college run by the Navy during WWII

Does anyone take a more conservative approach? Say, an alum is defined as someone who received a degree (diploma, certificate) from your institution?

We certainly fall into the all-inclusive category. In coding their constituency, though, we distinguish between Alumni (degree holding) and Alumni Non-Degree.

I am seeing more institutions going with anyone who received at least 1 credit hour and wasn’t expelled!

Good morning Listservers!
What is your definition of Alumni?
Some institutions use the CAE definition “alumni are defined as former students - full- or part-time, undergraduate or graduate - who have earned some credit toward one of the degrees, certificates, or diplomas offered by the reporting institution.”
At UNF for example, we define alumni as former students who attended University for at least two consecutive semesters.
What say you?
Thank you for your responses.
