Alumni Facilities Access Information
ABOUT ALUMNI FACILITIES ACCESS
MIAD alumni are granted access to all college lab facilities for one year after graduation. If you are within one year of graduation, please email alumni@miad.edu to receive an Alumni ID and information on how to schedule a lab appointment.
Alumni who are beyond one year of graduation are asked to pay an annual $25 fee to receive an Alumni ID, required for access to the labs. This fee supports Alumni Senior Thesis Awards, awarded to seniors each year to assist in fabricating their Senior Exhibition projects. Additional fees for lab projects may apply.
Note: Alumni Lab Access is being revised to support equitable student and alumni lab access, and a new policy should be live June 1, 2023.
If you have any questions on alumni access to the labs, please contact alumni@miad.edu.
