The Central Penn Alumni Association was founded 1984. Initially established to raise funds for and award student scholarships. Today the association has grown to 11,000+ living members. It has evolved to create fellowship among alumni and mutually beneficial relationships among them and Central Penn College, and to unite all alumni in supporting the College, promoting its welfare and encouraging education as a way of life through ties to the College.

The Alumni Association is led by the Alumni Council - a 24-member council election by alumni and non-voting college leaders including the president, vice president of advancement, and others.

The Alumni Association in partnership with Central Penn College publishes PennDulum Magazine three times a year. Each issue highlights the accomplishments of our alumni, the latest news and happenings at our campus and Lancaster Center, and provides updates and news from alumni around the world.

The Association also seeks to establish benefits for alumni. In 2021, the Council in partnership with Central Penn College unveiled a new alumni discount insurance program through M&A Insurance to add to the association’s list of benefits for graduates.

Central Penn College also began offering a formal alumni travel program in 2021, with the first trips taking place in 2022.

Supporting scholarships continues to be a focus, including providing funds to the Central Penn College Education Foundation through donation and sponsorship of events.

The Alumni Association grants free membership to all Central Penn College graduates of certificate, associates, bachelor's and master's degree programs. it grants associate membership to current students, faculty, and staff.

In addition to the free membership, in 2021, the Alumni Council approved returning a paid tiered memberships - Sword & Shield - to offer additional exclusive benefits to alumni who financially support the organization.
