English Usage - alumnus.

In the singular, alumnus is used to refer to either a male or a female ex-student of a particular university. The feminine alumna also exists, used when only a female is meant. The plural form alumni is the one most generally used to refer to ex-students of either sex, though occasionally alumnae is used to refer to females only.
