All graduates of the University of South Carolina and members of the Alumni Association have an ID number. Even non-alumni members will get an ID number upon joining the Alumni Association or making a donation to a UofSC fund.
While the terminology for this ID number has changed over the years such as AAID or Member ID, the ID numbers themselves have stayed the same. Alumni IDs are 10-digit numbers with leading zeros that look like "0000012345".
To find your alumni/member ID number:
1) Locate the ID number on the front of your Alumni Association membership card. It will read AAID: 000012345
2) Sign in to this website, click on your profile in the top-right corner, and locate the ID number at the top of your profile.
3) Contact the Alumni Association at connect@uofscalumni.org and ask for us to provide your ID number.
Your ID number is necessary to vote in elections, access certain benefits, and prove your membership status. If you need a replacement membership card, please contact us at connect@uofscalumni.org for assistance.
You may add on a second member for a great price on any alumni membership (Life or Recurring).
For example, an individual one year membership is $55, but a dual membership is $65. That's only $10 for an entire membership! Please see our membership sign up page for complete dual member options.
There are no restrictions on who can be your dual member. This can be your spouse, partner, child, or even a friend.
That said, dual member packages, materials, and renewal notices will be mailed to the same address as the individual who signed up. Due to database limitations, we do not send dual member mail to separate households.
As of December 2019, the UofSC Alumni Association offers the following membership levels:
Recurring memberships need to be renewed at the end of the one or three year period. Life Memberships are just that; for life!
All alumni membership options have the ability to add on a second member for a great price. For example, individual one year memberships are $55, but a dual membership is only $65. That's an entire membership for only $10!
