Geneseo Legacy Program
SUNY Geneseo’s Legacy Program honors families who have made attending the College a tradition. We treasure the ties that bind your family to ours and take pride in celebrating the shared roots that span decades–or even centuries.
Each fall we present first-year students with a legacy pin, and we honor all legacy connections online.
A legacy student has a parent, grandparent, sibling, aunt, uncle, or cousin who is a Geneseo graduate.
2027 First-Year Legacy Student Celebration Station – Class of 2031:
- The Office of Alumni Relations will host this event in conjunction with residence hall check-in and family programming during first-year orientation residence hall move-in (around August 24, 2027).
- Complete the Fall 2027 Legacy Interest Form to receive more detailed information in July/August 2027.
We consider any family relation a legacy connection. For example, if your great-uncle attended Geneseo and so did you (regardless of when either of you graduated), you have a legacy connection that we want to celebrate.
Legacy connections include (and you may even find yourself in several of these categories):
- Parent/Grandparent – Child/Grandchild
- Aunt/Uncle – Niece/Nephew
- Siblings and First Cousins
All college yearbooks are available digitally if you want to search for photos of family members during their time at SUNY Geneseo.
By completing the legacy form, you agree to SUNY Geneseo’s Photo Release Policy. Your signature on this form is not required.
