Waseda University Launches Unique Online Community for All
Waseda University has stepped into the realm of digital engagement by announcing the establishment of the
Internet Alumni Association, an online community designed for all who cherish and support the university. This initiative, led by TWENTYTWO, Inc., will officially commence on
June 20, 2026. The unique aspect of this community is that it is not exclusively for graduates but is open to everyone with an affinity for Waseda University.
Breaking Down Barriers
Traditionally, alumni associations have primarily catered to Waseda graduates. However, many individuals interested in Waseda’s culture, philosophies, and community have often found themselves excluded due to a lack of formal connections to the university. The Internet Alumni Association aims to eliminate this barrier, allowing anyone who appreciates Waseda—whether students, prospective students, faculty families, or general fans—to join the conversation.
The criteria for membership are refreshingly simple: all that is required is a love for Waseda University. Whether individuals are aspiring students, family members of alumni, or enthusiasts of Waseda's rich history and cultural activities, this community welcomes them without prerequisite affiliations.
Global Access
Being an online community means that participation is not restricted by geography. People from all corners of the world, including those living abroad, can connect in this unique space dedicated to a shared passion for Waseda. The Internet Alumni Association aims to foster interaction across different ages and locations, paving the way for a diverse range of experiences and insights about the university.
Future plans for this online community include opportunities for real-world interactions and exchanges among members, special features about Waseda University, and other engaging content designed to forge connections among fans.
Premium Membership Benefits
To join the Internet Alumni Association, individuals will need to register as
premium members of the TwoTwoAll platform. The monthly subscription fee is
1,500 yen (tax included), providing access to exclusive content and community features. This initiative not only enhances the flow of information regarding Waseda University but also catalyzes the creation of new communities centered around the university.
