List of San Beda College alumni

San Beda College is well-known for its strong community and a Bedan's graduation from college does not end his or her relationship with San Beda. In fact, Bedans bring to the practice of their professions and the exercise of office the culture and the traditions of Benedictine education.

The San Beda College Alumni Association (SBCAA) currently handles and manages the alumni network as part of its efforts to keep the Bedan spirit alive and intact among San Beda's graduates and alums. The SBCAA holds yearly the greatly anticipated Red and White Ball, usually at the NBC Tent located in The Fort Bonifacio Global City in Taguig. The Red and White Ball serves not only as a reunion for Bedans but as a social gathering of prominent people in Philippine society, as well.
