Homecoming

Flight 1887!

Home is where the journey takes you.

Since 1887, TROY has been a place where people come to find their direction, discover their purpose and take flight toward what comes next.

This Homecoming, we're bringing generations of Trojans back together for Flight 1887.

From the first step on campus to the moments that changed everything, every Trojan has a story. Every journey adds to our legacy. And every generation helps carry TROY forward.

On November 7, come home to TROY.

Reconnect with the people who made your journey memorable. Celebrate the places and traditions that made TROY feel like home. And take your place among the generations of Trojans who continue to make our story All Ways Real. Always TROY.

Flight 1887 is boarding.

Wherever life has taken you, your seat is waiting.

Homecoming 2026 is November 7
