MTM - USAMTM Alumni Research helps schools, colleges, and universities strengthen long-term relationships, increase alumni engagement, and grow donor support. Through strategic data analysis and targeted alumni research, we identify what motivates former students to re-engage, give back, and contribute to future advancement initiatives.
Our alumni research uncovers how graduates feel about their school experience, what keeps them connected, and what motivates them to support events, mentorship, or fundraising efforts. With this insight, alongside our demographic data services, you can build stronger networks, improve outreach, and grow your donor pipeline with confidence.
MTM Alumni Research blends perception surveys, demographic profiling, and engagement analysis to segment alumni by interest, affinity, and giving potential. We help institutions identify high-value supporters, design meaningful touchpoints, and prioritize outreach for campaigns and events. Whether growing participation or preparing for a capital drive, our research fuels sustainable alumni strategy and long-term community loyalty.
MTM Insights conducts alumni research for private schools to uncover how graduates engage, give, and stay connected. Each project begins with a discovery session to clarify goals, whether enhancing communications, strengthening fundraising, or expanding mentorship. We combine survey data with demographic insights to create a clear profile of alumni behavior and motivation, providing a fact-based foundation for smarter advancement and community-building decisions.
Results reveal which alumni are most engaged, where communication gaps exist, and what drives generosity. Schools apply insights to refine stewardship, shape appeals, and design programs that build stronger loyalty and recurring involvement across generations.
In your initial meeting, we’ll discuss your current alumni engagement goals, whether building participation, preparing for a campaign, or segmenting donor potential, and show how MTM Alumni Research can support your advancement strategy. Ready to unlock insights?

Projects can combine alumni surveys, CRM and gift data analysis and engagement segmentation. We examine communications, events, volunteering, and philanthropy to find drivers of participation and giving. Deliverables translate findings into prioritized actions, timelines, and KPIs your advancement team can execute and measure across the year.
Most projects run 6–8 weeks: scoping and instrument design, 2–3 weeks in field, then cleaning, analysis, and reporting. Multi-campus studies or translations may extend timelines. We align milestones to your calendar, so findings land before campaigns, reunions, or board meetings.
We keep surveys concise, mobile-first, and purpose-led. For data quality, we de-duplicate, standardize fields, and validate segments. Open-text analysis is coded to themes, ensuring both statistical clarity and usable narratives for leadership.
Where peer data exists, we provide index comparisons and quartiles by engagement mode (philanthropic, volunteer, experiential, communications). If external benchmarks are unavailable, we create internal baselines, then track year-over-year change. Benchmarks focus effort on gaps that matter and prevent overreacting to noisy data.
