Wharton Alumni Relations is excited to announce the recent launch of MyPenn, the new alumni community. MyPenn replaced the past alumni directories WhartonConnect and Quakernet for all University alumni in November, 2020. This dynamic platform serves as a one-stop portal for Penn and Wharton students and alumni, offering the same benefits of the old systems along with new opportunities to connect with fellow alumni, create a customized experience, and access university resources.
MyPenn is your online directory that connects you with fellow Penn and Wharton alumni around the world. Whether you have changed your email address, taken on a new position, or joined a board, keep your profile updated to keep the Wharton network strong!

Share Your Story
Join the Wharton Alumni Welcome (WAW) program — offering alumni the opportunity to connect with MBA students.
As an alumni volunteer, you will be “matched” with a current MBA student. You will then connect with your student “match” to chat over video conference, phone, or email, giving the current student a chance to learn from Wharton’s talented network of alumni.
Encourage Future MBA Students
Connect with newly admitted Wharton MBA students through the Wharton Admissions Yield (WAY) Program to answer the incoming students’ questions about Wharton and to encourage them to accept Wharton’s offer of admission.
Support Through Giving

Support The Wharton Fund
Nearly a third of Wharton Fund resources last year were allocated to supporting technology upgrades and investments — the very items delivering Wharton’s world-class instruction during this critical time. Your support is already, or will become, part of the solution.
