Since the Early 1960s

Legacy forward.

The National Alumni Association honors Alabama State University's proud alumni tradition while keeping the association active, connected, and future-focused.

Our Story

Built by graduates,
for every Hornet.

The National Alumni Association, Incorporated, of Alabama State University was established by graduates in the early 1960s — then called the General Alumni Association. Its objective was simple and remains unchanged: organize alumni to support the university, its students, and each other.

Today the NAA is a 501(c)(3) with chapters across four regions and a virtual community — funding scholarships, recruiting students, and carrying Hornet pride into every city where alumni land.

Early 1960s

Graduates establish the General Alumni Association.

Growth years

Chapters charter across Alabama, then follow alumni north and west — Detroit, Chicago, DC, Los Angeles.

Today

50 chapters, four regions + virtual, and a national scholarship program sending students to the Yard.

Next

A new digital home — this platform — connecting every member, every chapter, and every future Hornet.
