Join your local community for Penn State alumni and friends events!
Thank you for belonging to our local chapter of the Penn State Alumni Association (PSAA).
In 2022, PSAA membership at the local and University level were combined. Local chapters no longer collect dues—instead, access to local chapters is included with PSAA membership. This makes it easier for more alumni to connect with the Penn State community when and where they want and will enable chapters like ours to engage more local alumni. This membership model includes all PSAA membership benefits which can be found online at – PSAA Membership Benefits.
For individuals that were only Centre County Chapter Members and want to become a member of the PSAA , we wanted to let you know about some discounts available. If you are age 60 or above, membership is half price. Go online to the Penn State Alumni Association Membership webpage, click Membership. Scroll down and click on the 60+ button.
If you are a current member of the Centre County Chapter and a PSAA member, we suggest that you log into your PSAA membership account and make sure all of your contact information is up-to-date so you continue to receive all information from both PSAA and CCCPSAA.
Whether you're a recent Penn State graduate, a working professional in the Centre Region, or a retiree who has returned to Happy Valley, the Centre County Chapter of the Penn State Alumni Association (CCCPSAA) is a great way to network with a diverse group of individuals who all have one thing in common: a passion for everything Blue and White!
Open To Everyone
We encourage membership in the main Penn State Alumni Association. We welcome everyone to the Centre County Chapter, regardless of where you earned your degree -- University employees and local residents are welcome to sign-up and participate in our chapter activities. Even if you haven't joined PSAA, you may participate in all chapter activities but will have to pay a non-member events fee.
