If you have fallen off the HP Alumni email lists, just send a new application from your current email address.


If you are on an hp.com or hpe.com email account, forward a link to this page to your personal email account and apply from there.

Send an email -- as described below -- from the personal email account that you will use for your membership. Please select a single email address to use for all dealings with HPAA. (We use your email address, not your name, to identify you.)

- We do not accept applications from an @hp.com or @hpe.com email address -- you will lose that address when you leave the company. ( How to set up a personal email account )

- We've found that company, professional association, and university alumni email addresses do not work well for HPAA. The topics we discuss tend to be blocked as spam or phishing. 

- An email account that sends challenge replies to incoming emails will not work.

We need you to send your request from the email account that you wish to use for your membership. (If changing your address, be sure to send the email from your new account.)

Please send the questionnaire below in an email to hpalumniassn.membership@gmail.com (Do not send the questionnaire as an attachment.)

Put "apply" then your name in the subject line of your message.
