MEMBERSHIP UPDATE
![Membership_web_header](https://alumni.auburn.edu/files/2023/05/welcomeheader.jpg)
War Eagle! To best serve the needs and interests of our alumni, we simplified our Auburn Alumni Association membership structure. All graduates will remain General Members, with no monetary contribution required, and Life membership gifts will support Auburn. We will no longer offer annual membership. See our FAQ below for more information.
Life membership options are below, or you may continue to support the Auburn Alumni Association by giving in other ways.
