History

The first student alumni association was established at Indiana University in the late 1940s. Formal organization of a national program occurred in 1973 at the University of Minnesota where 300 students representing 67 institutions voted unanimously to establish the Student Alumni Association/Student Foundation Network.

In 1992, the SAA/SF Network formally became a part of CASE. The SAA/SF Network changed its name to the Association of Student Advancement Programs in 2000. In 2008, with the goal of clarifying the program, strengthening its connection to CASE and better aligning its mission with CASE's strategic initiatives, the ASAP Program changed its name to CASE Affiliated Student Advancement Programs (CASE ASAP).
