The alumni network of the University Maths Schools
Former pupils of the University Maths Schools, together.
The U-Maths Alumni Association is the membership body for everyone who left a University Maths School: a network of mathematicians, engineers, scientists, quants and teachers that started with two schools in 2014 and now spans 11. Membership is free, and it is yours to shape.
What membership is for
A network that is worth more the more of us are in it
Each school sends about 60 people a year out into maths-heavy degrees and careers. Eleven schools and a decade later, that is a lot of people who understand each other. The association is how they find one another.
Find each other again
A members-only directory, by school and by year group, that you control: choose what is shown, and to whom. Lose the group chat, keep the people.
Give something back
Current pupils are choosing degrees and careers you have already chosen. Mentor one, give a talk, or come to a careers evening at your old school.
See where everyone went
Dashboards of the whole alumni body -- universities, subjects, sectors, cities -- so you can see the network you are part of, built from consented data only.
Meet in person
Reunions by cohort and by city, and socials that mix the schools. The first ones are being planned now, and members hear first.
Careers, from people like you
Alumni work in quant finance, software, research, engineering, data, teaching and more. Ask them what it is actually like, and tell the next cohort what you have learned.
Your data, on your terms
You see what we hold, you correct it, and you can leave whenever you like. Nobody is contacted without their consent, and nobody under eighteen is on any list.
The network in numbers
The alumni estimate assumes roughly 60 leavers a year at each open school; the schools publish their own figures. Everything else is a matter of record.
The schools
One association, eleven schools
Wherever you studied, you belong here. Each school has its own page, and members can see the alumni body school by school as well as all together.
Membership
Free to join. Fifteen pounds a year if you want to keep it running.

Questions
The short answers
What is the U-Maths Alumni Association?
A membership body run by and for former pupils of the University Maths Schools, the specialist sixth forms for mathematics that opened across England from 2014. It exists to keep alumni in touch with each other and with their schools: a directory, reunions, mentoring for current pupils, and careers events.
Who can join?
Anyone who left a University Maths School, from the first leavers of 2016 onwards. Membership is free. Current pupils cannot join while they are at school, because everyone on the membership list is an adult who chose to be there.
Which schools are covered?
All eleven schools in the network: Exeter, King's College London, Liverpool, Lancaster, Cambridge, Imperial College London, Leeds, Surrey, Aston, Nottingham and Durham. Exeter and King's opened in 2014 and have the most alumni; several of the newer schools are still waiting for their first leavers.
Does it cost anything?
No. Membership is free. There is an optional supporter tier at £15 a year for people who want to cover the running costs, which are modest: filings, insurance and the software the association runs on.
Your data
Built the careful way round
Nobody is on a list here because a data broker sold them. The association's records come from what alumni tell it and from what the schools and alumni have already published, and nobody is contacted until they have asked to be. You can see everything held about you, correct it, and delete it.
