Alumni Awards finalists

Congratulations to the 2025 Alumni Award finalists!

With over 300,000 alumni globally, the Victoria University (VU) Alumni Awards recognise those alumni who are making a powerful and positive difference in our community – and our world.

Alumni Award finalists represent the passion, dedication, and resilience of our VU alumni community. We couldn’t be prouder of each and every one of them.

Alumni Award Finalists are also in the running for the Spirit of Victoria University Alumni Award, to be determined by public vote. All voters in the Spirit of VU - People’s Choice Award will go in the draw to win one of three $50 gift vouchers.
