Why Aphi?

We are committed to our sisterhood of women supporting one another in lifelong achievement. 



Academics


Your daughter is a potential member because her scholastic record brought her to an institution with an Alpha Phi chapter. We want to support your daughter’s vision to excel and to be a leader in and out of the classroom. College is about learning theories and assumptions, but also a time to learn about yourself. We hope to foster your daughter’s creativity and drive in all aspects of her collegiate experience.



Commitment & Leadership


Alpha Phi is committed to your daughter’s membership experience. Our Founders vision was to create a women’s organization based on sisterhood, scholarship and service. We hold each of these tenants true today in all that we do and commit to you. Your daughter will learn life and professional skills that she will use over the course of her entire life.



Sisterhood & Support


The bonds of friendship tie each of our members together during college and post-graduate years. It is the friendships formed that lead to smiles, laughter, tears and ultimately memories that your daughter will cherish for a lifetime. In Alpha Phi, it is the individual that makes the difference in your experience – and a collection of brilliant individuals leads to the experience of a lifetime.



Tradition


Alpha Phi was founded in 1872 by ten of the first women to enter Syracuse University. When they were denied entrance to men’s fraternities, they created their own and began a path of sisterhood and friendship that holds 133 years of cherished moments and traditions. Each chapter upholds traditions begun by these ten remarkable women, while at the same time they hold dear customs created by the founders of their own chapters. While each member lives in the present, it is our past traditions that bind us all together.



Watch care


Watch care began with our Founders, who bonded together to support each other for mutual growth. Watch care has three components: the preservation of human dignity, risk management and the development of solid values and ethics to help our members make appropriate decisions. Watch care offers the foundation for our members that hand in hand we will stay safe and grow to meet our highest potential.
