The Gates Cambridge Scholarships

Gates Scholars’ Alumni Association

Alumni Association

Past Gates Scholars automatically become members of the Gates Scholars' Alumni Association (GSAA), an integral part of the Gates Scholars' Society. 

Established in 2005 by members of the inaugural class of scholars, the Alumni Association works to ensure each alumnus remains as much a part of the Gates community after they leave Cambridge as they did while they were here.  Through regular alumni activities, the biannual Gates Newsletter, online resources, and by reaching out and working with other organizations, the GSAA aims to build a strong and lasting network of future leaders who work together to make significant contributions to the global community

The GSAA is represented globally by the GSAA Coordinating Committee, which has eight members from diverse geographical locations, three of whom act as co-chairs.  The Association has regional representatives around the globe.  The GSAA is further pursuing its mission by building partnerships with organizations, such as the British Council and the Gates Millennium Scholarships, and by conducting outreach activities through the Gates Ambassadors and Gates Coffeehouse Programs.  

With over 600 alumni now spread around the world, the GSAA will continue to work closely with alumni, the current Scholars' Council and the Trust to strengthen communications further and to expand opportunities for Gates alumni and scholars.
