On November 12, 2025, the senior class of 2026 was joined by alumnus John Margetis, class of 1991, who works as a consultant. Ilias Karapiperis, class of 1992, is a coach and entrepreneur. Dr. Peter Papageoriou, class of 1993, is a doctor and entrepreneur. Panos Karamertzanis, class of 1993, is an engineer and entrepreneur. Dimitris Kaliviotis, class of 1995, is a designer and worked in special effects for Hollywood movies. John Karamanos, class of 1997, is in shipping. Nick Atzoutzoulas, class of 1997, is an entrepreneur. Celia Peza, class of 2014, is an artist, and Raneem Ghuneim, class of 2021, does MSC applied economics, banking, and financial markets.

The seniors got to ask questions, including “Was university a large part of your success?”, “What is the reason for uncertainty? Too young?”, “If you could go back to the beginning of university, what advice would you give yourself?” The alumni panels had the opportunity to share their experience with answers explaining how we need to trust our instincts, reach deep within ourselves to find the right paths for ourselves. As a senior, hearing these pieces of advice that previous graduates of ACS Athens had to say was inspiring but also a reality check. As seniors, we are still in our own little bubble of applications, admissions tests, transcripts, and uni offers. By hearing them speak, we all got out of that bubble for a short period of time and understood that we aren't alone in this process and that we need to do what makes us proud of ourselves.
