Formal Recruitment

At Georgia Tech, Potential New Members (PNMs) will have the opportunity to visit eight of the Collegiate Panhellenic Council (CPC) chapters during Formal Recruitment in order to gain exposure to our campus's range of sororities and Greek women. CPC also has two amazing associate chapters which do not participate in Formal Recruitment. During Formal Recruitment, each PNM and the chapters they visits each day will narrow down their choices through a mutual selection process. In the end, the PNM will have the opportunity to find the sorority, sisterhood, and community that best fits their values!

Letter from the VPR

Dear Potential New Members, 

From all of us here at Alpha Chi Omega, welcome to Georgia Tech and to our Panhellenic Community! You are about to embark on an incredible journey, one of self discovery that will push you to grow and learn in ways you never knew you could before, and along the way, our sisterhood will help you to grow in character, leadership, and academics. The love and support I’ve felt from the sisters at Alpha Chi Omega have exceeded my wildest dreams and greatly contributed to my college experience.

There is so much excitement that comes with that start of college, especially formal recruitment, though the anticipation for both can be daunting - I still vividly remember that bundle of nerves feeling. But I promise that stepping through Alpha Chi’s teal front doors, you can relax and feel right at home. Be ready to exchange laugh-til-you-cry stories from the summer, your most outlandish movie/book/show opinions, and stories about what sparks your passion for progress and service.

We believe that there is grace to be found through authentic connection, and are looking  forward to you sharing yourselves with us! It is our diversity that truly sings the melody of our bond. Our sisterhood is marked by its stability, unity, and originality, as well as its adventurous and artistic spirit. One reason we love recruitment is having the honor of forming connections with hundreds of beautiful and accomplished young women. It is a heartening reminder of the strength of the female community at Georgia Tech. We cannot wait to welcome you into our home, get to know you, and share with you a glimpse into our unmatched sisterhood!

We embrace our motto, “Together Let Us Seek the Heights,” in a myriad of ways. Alpha Chi Omega has a legacy of everyday humanitarians, Miss Georgia Techs, Ramblin’ Reck Drivers, a Secretary of State, Peace Corps members, Miss USAs, CEOs, D1 athletes, philanthropists, (future) astronauts, a legacy built by and for Real. Strong. Women. who defy labels. Who never settles for less than she strives for! On Bid Day, we will welcome a new class who will join us and continue the Alpha Chi Omega legacy, and one of those people might be you!

I invite you to explore our website to see and read about all of the people who I have the privilege of calling my sisters. If you have any questions about recruitment or our sisterhood, please don’t hesitate to reach out and ask me!

We are counting down the days until we get to meet you!

Until then, Loyally,

Olivia Loris

Vice President of Recruitment 2024

Why Alpha Chi

 

There are eight CPC sororities, and even more outside of CPC, at Georgia Tech alone. Collegiate women have so many choices as to the organizations and communities that they join and the experiences they pursue.

So: Why Alpha Chi?

Why did our sisters choose our chapter over others? What have they gained from being sisters here, and how has it shaped not only their college experience, but who they have become as individuals?


Why Alpha Chi?

 

'“I have met the most wonderful people in Alpha Chi. Everyone is so supportive, genuine, and will truly be there for me if I ever need them. Every day during rush, I met a group of diverse women who I felt truly appreciated my interests and thoughts, and who saw the best in me. The lifelong friends I made here not only care for my presence, but acknowledge my absence. I joined a sorority because I wanted to dedicate my time to a sorority’s philanthropy efficiently, and AXO does a wonderful job of not only educating Georgia Tech’s community on Domestic Violence Awareness (DVA), but also involving students in supporting our local shelter under Partnership Against Domestic Violence. This type of healthy unconditional love is nothing I have ever experienced before. I feel incredibly grateful for finding that here at 741.”

- Nidhi Reddy, MC ‘22 


“I’m Alpha Chi because there are always friendly faces at the house to greet me. Whether it's on the front porch, in the living room, or downstairs where someone will welcome me to sit and have dinner at their table. Our members care about each other greatly and want to see each of us become stronger, broad-minded members of society. I chose Alpha Chi because I can see how every member wants it to be a safe haven for people who might feel isolated on campus. We, especially members of the executive board, are consistently working to make their members and minority groups on campus feel heard. My favorite part of Alpha Chi so far has definitely been the big/little process. I loved meeting and getting to know different potential Bigs, and letting our VP New Member Education set me up with my match. I absolutely love my family and am excited to add someone new!”
