Career Development

Recent graduates (0-5 years from graduation year) have access to the resources of the College’s Center for Career Development (CCD). As schedules permit, CCD staff provide career services including career counseling self-assessment, resume review and assistance in developing job search strategies. Alumni who are more than five years out may access resources on the Alumni Career Development website pages, including alumni career advisors, networking events, webinars and other online resources and counseling referrals.

Get Involved, Make a Difference

Being ‘men and women for others’ sets Holy Cross alumni apart. The College offers many opportunities for involvement — with your classmates, your friends and your alma mater. Choose from the volunteer opportunities below that best suit your interests.

HCAA Young Alumni Committee

Committee’s purpose
To strengthen the connection between Holy Cross and its young alumni; to educate current students and young alumni about the Holy Cross Alumni Association; to increase the involvement of young alumni in the HC Alumni Association, and to identify and recruit future HC Alumni Association leaders from the student and young alumni ranks.

Who are we?
The Young Alumni Committee is made up of volunteer alumni from the past ten graduating years. Volunteers can choose to get involved with programming based around their interests. While the committee does focus its programming around young alumni, engaging with current students is also critically important to our mission.
