List of Haverford College people

This List of Haverford College people includes alumni and faculty of Haverford College. Haverford is a smaller college and has a smaller alumni population than its peers. Because expansion occurred in the 1980s, most of Haverford's alumni are still quite young. Despite this, as of 2010, Haverford alumni include four Nobel Prizes, four MacArthur Fellows, 20 Rhodes Scholarships, 10 Marshall Scholarships, nine Henry Luce Fellowships, 56 Watson Fellowships, two George Mitchell Scholarship, two Carnegie Endowment Junior Fellowships, two Churchill Scholars, one Gates Cambridge Scholar, 13 All Americans, and 23 NCAA post-graduate winners.

Haverford College invites distinguished members of society to speak at academic convocations and at commencement. There are three to four honorary degree recipients at commencement, and it is tradition that one of the recipients be a Quaker. The college awards Litt.D, Sci.D, LL.D, D.MA, D.FA, and D.H.A honoris causa.

A complete list of honorary degree recipients since 1858 is available online.
