About the HCU Alumni Association

What We Do

The HCU Alumni Association serves and supports Houston Christian University, its more than 24,570 alumni, its friends, and the community it calls home. Our goal is enabling and encouraging lifelong alumni relationships with the University. HCU is a special place, but without you – the former students who brought life to the campus – it would simply be a handful of buildings.

You, our alumni friends, are HCU. 

We support student scholarships, host alumni networking events and offer unique opportunities throughout the year for all to come back and connect.
