Lifelong Learning

An Amherst education doesn’t end at commencement. We’re pleased to offer a variety of in-person and online learning experiences that will give you a lot to consider and discuss.

Meet Our Alumni

The Amherst environment fosters lifelong friendships and sparks a deep and persistent desire to learn. Our alumni take all variety of paths in life. Some are prominent on the world scene and others contribute to society in equally important though less public ways. A liberal arts education prepares students for careers, volunteer activities, and individual interests and pursuits that are personally meaningful.

It’s not about what you have done since Amherst, but who you have become.
