Dear Class of 2013!

We’re gearing up for GSAPP Alumni Weekend on June 1-3, and are excited to celebrate with you all! We hope you’ll join us for a weekend of social events and presentations on campus, and a party at A/D/O in Brooklyn.

Now is the time to buy your ticket and book your hotel while the promotional rates are still available!

Tickets are half price if you buy them in advance, and the party is expected to sell out as it did last year. If you buy the Alumni Reunion Weekend Pass, you’ll have access to all of the campus events on June 1-2 and the party on June 2.

Remember to make a hotel reservation at one of our three hotel partners before May 2 in order to take advantage of the promotional rates. You can find more hotel information at the bottom of the Schedule listed below.

Each class will also be organizing their own events on Sunday, June 3. Reunion Leaders from the class will be following up with more information, but please also feel free to get in touch if you have any questions. We look forward to seeing you soon!
