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. Statesboro 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 Southern University. We have 23 Alpha Phis living within 30 miles of GSU, 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.

Alpha Phi has 20 total chapters with more than 300 members, including these older chapters: Colorado, Arizona, San Diego State, Missouri, Texas, Penn State, Arizona State and Cal Poly. Our staff and volunteers have extensive experience supporting large chapters
