OCA Committee
The Ormond College Association (OCA) connects alumni across generations, keeping the College community vibrant long after student days. Through events, mentoring, and ongoing support, the OCA Committee helps alumni stay engaged while strengthening Ormond’s future.
Membership for life
Every student who spends a semester or more at Ormond becomes a member of the Ormond College Association (OCA). From that moment on, they are part of a global network of alumni who continue to shape and support the College long after their student days.

A collaborative commitment
The OCA Committee meets three times per year and works closely with Ormond’s Advancement and Engagement teams to bring ideas to life. Members are also active throughout the year, helping to plan events, represent alumni at official occasions and provide support behind the scenes.It’s a generous and rewarding commitment – and a powerful way to give back while staying involved.The OCA brings the new and the old together. Whether it’s the opportunity to reignite an old friendship, or support a young Ormondian in finding their way, our community has so much to share and enjoy.
