New Altrata Report Reveals Leading Global Universities with Wealthy and Influential Alumni

University Alumni Report 2022 ranks the leading universities in the US and internationally that have the most alumni serving on the board or in the C-suite of public companies. It also ranks the US and international universities with the most ultra wealthy alumni, those with a net worth of $30 million or more.

Understanding the net worth and professional networks of alumni is not only important to universities seeking to enhance their alumni fundraising efforts, but also to organizations across sectors to hone recruiting efforts and understand the potential of their C-suite networks.

Among numerous findings the University Alumni Report 2022: Rankings of the Wealthy and Influential reveals:

• Harvard is at the top of most rankings with more than 17,600 ultra wealthy alumni (5% of the global ultra wealthy population) and nearly 4,000 alumni who serve on the board or in the C-suite of US public companies, followed by the University of Pennsylvania and Stanford
• Among the top 20 US universities, the average senior executive alum has accumulated 1,280 direct professional connections to senior decision-makers
• UCLA, the University of California at Berkeley, and Tufts University have the highest female representation among their US senior executive alumni
• Alumni from Harvard University tend to assume board or corporate leadership roles at public US companies faster than those from other US universities
• California Institute of Technology, University of Maryland, and University of Pittsburgh have the highest proportion of self-made ultra wealthy alumni
• Chulalongkorn University in Thailand, Kuwait University, and Monash University in Australia have the highest proportion of ultra wealthy female alumni – ahead of all US universities
• University of Cambridge leads the non-US university rankings with more than 4,000 ultra wealthy alumni, followed by the National University of Singapore and the University of Oxford

The report also takes a closer look at the ultra wealthy and senior executive alumni of Harvard University, INSEAD, and the University of Oxford, three of the world's most prestigious learning institutions. While these wealthy and influential alumni share similarities, the unique characteristics of each university's set of alumni is uncovered through these distinct archetypes.
