Alpha Phi International Fraternity is more than a Greek organization. It’s a community of close-knit women supporting one another for a lifetime. Established in 1872, Alpha Phi has 175 collegiate chapters in North America and more than 310,000 members committed to lifelong friendships, leadership, academic excellence, personal growth and community involvement! Alpha Phis constantly work toward improvement and growth, both as individuals and as an organization.

In 1872, the first women to attend Syracuse University decided that it was not enough to merely participate in the classroom. Denied admission to the men’s fraternities, several of these women chose to create their own fraternity for women. From the beginning, they envisioned an expansive sisterhood, and their leadership and organizational practices set the tone for the Alpha Phi of today. Much like our present-day membership, the Founders were a group of curious women who did not back down from a challenge — women who had a vision for our sisterhood and the confidence in one another to make an impact.

Alpha Phi has two collegiate chapters in Georgia at Georgia Tech and University of Georgia. Throughout our history, more than 4,620 Georgians have joined Alpha Phi and made a lasting mark on our organization. Milledgeville has long been an important city to Alpha Phi, and local alumnae are all thrilled at the prospect of supporting a new Alpha Phi chapter at Georgia College and State University. We have 23 Alpha Phis living within 30 miles of GCSU, 327 within 60 miles and 752 within 90 miles. More than 38,000 Alpha Phis call the beautiful Southeast home, and Alpha Phi has 24 collegiate chapters in the region. While the culture at each institution is different, the Alpha Phis have found ways to amplify the campus culture and traditions while shaping personal undergraduate experiences that empower women leaders.

In the last eighteen years, Alpha Phi has established 33 new chapters and prioritized integrating Alpha Phi into each campus community and student body to ensure success. Of these 33 new chapters, these are the new ones with more than 200 members: Ole Miss, Alabama, Clemson, Arkansas, Georgia, Oklahoma, LSU, Baylor, Kentucky, Florida State, Florida, Utah, UNC Chapel Hill and Georgia Tech.
