Every year since 1932, the USC Alumni Association has honored a select group of prestigious alumni for their professional achievements and outstanding service to the University and community at the Alumni Awards gala.
On Saturday, April 17, 2027, alumni, family and friends will come together for the 93rd Annual USC Alumni Awards to celebrate the very best of our Trojan Family. Stay tuned for more information about this special evening!
The Alumni Awards also represents a collective investment in the Trojan community. Together, we are working toward our $1 million goal to support alumni programs that foster lifelong connections and fund student scholarships that open doors for future Trojans. Your support honors alumni who lead and serve while helping shape the future of Trojan excellence.
