Dear Potential New Members,
Welcome to Carnegie Mellon University! We hope you are enjoying your time here, exploring new interests and making lasting friendships. Joining a sorority can add so much value to your life here, whether you are looking for social opportunities, academic support, or just a place on campus that you can call home. Alpha Chi Omega is a group of strong and spirited women with an unrivaled presence within the Greek community and the university at large.
Our chapter recruits through Panhellenic Sorority Recruitment (PSR) in the fall and through recruitment events and coffee dating throughout the remainder of the year.
PSR can be both exciting and daunting for potential new members. Alpha Chi recruits only the best new members, holding each one to the highest standard out of all Panhellenic sororities. Here are some of the values that we look for in our members:
- Involvement: We strive to pursue our passions and to contribute positively to the organizations that we are a part of. We aim for leadership positions within our communities, having confidence in our ability and in our goals.
- Integrity: We are socially conscious, financially responsible, and loyal.
- Achievement: As with any organization at Carnegie Mellon, we value academic interest and achievement. In addition, we encourage a love of learning and the pursuit of knowledge, not just in academics but in all areas in life.
- Philanthropy: We are selfless, generous, and kind, knowing the impact that we can have on campus and in our community.
Every Alpha Chi has a unique story about their recruitment and our sisterhood, but all of the stories share a common thread. As described by our open motto, Together Let Us Seek the Heights, we are selected into this sorority so that we might support our sisters, and they might support us, with our whole hearts, leading every sister closer to their goals than would be possible alone.
If you would like to learn more about Alpha Chi, reach out via email or message us on Instagram. We look forward to hearing from you!
Loyally,
The Sisters of Alpha Chi Omega
