<p>Does master students also benefit from undergrad alumni network? </p>
<p>I do understand this is a weird question…</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>I’m not even sure what the question is. What do you mean by benefit?</p>
<p>What I mean is, when people say alumni network, does it contain people with masters degree…</p>
<p>I ask this because from where I come from, when people say alumni network, it usually means undergrad alumni network (where graduate level students are not considered “true” alumni for whatever reasons). This might be partly due to the fact that my home country has very poor graduate level programs…</p>
<p>I was asking if this is true at US universities also?</p>
<p>Its very hard to generalize, but usually it includes everyone who attended the university whether for undergraduate or graduate studies.</p>
<p>Your graduate network will be much smaller but stronger than your undergraduate network - you will meet fewer people, but they will all be working in fields relevent to your own. They can generally provide solid references and contacts for you for decades (by observation).</p>
<p>The “I went to the same school but never met you” network will stay the same - if someone has a connection to you because of your school it is not usually predicated on what type of degree you got.</p>
<p>Okay, thanks.</p>
<p>That clears out a lot.</p>
