FAQ

When is Cardinal Weekend 2026?

Cardinal Weekend is from October 16-18, 2026.
 

Which alumni will have special reunion celebrations in 2026?

As always, alumni from all class years are encouraged to attend most events. Special events will be hosted for our reunion alumni who graduated with a class year ending in 1 or 6.

How can I get involved with my reunion?

If you graduated in a year ending in 1 or 6, you can help make your reunion a success by signing up for your Class Reunion Committee. Reunion Committee volunteers spread the word about Cardinal Weekend events and encourage classmates to celebrate their milestone reunion in D.C. and to support important philanthropic priorities.
