First. Finest. Forever. Since 1851.
For more than 150 years, extraordinary women have called Alpha Delta Pi home. Originally called the “Adelphean Society,” Alpha Delta Pi was the first secret society for women and forged the way for women in the fraternity system. Our founding took place at Wesleyan Female College in Macon, Georgia – the first college in the world chartered to grant degrees to women. We continue to initiate progress throughout the fraternity system, being the first sorority to offer a shortened new member education program.
Alpha Delta Pi also builds and fosters a sisterhood of leaders. Sisters find Alpha Delta Pi a safe place to draw on their unique experiences and make their mark. We offer members the opportunity to obtain leadership experience as chapter officers as well as through sisters who are involved in various organizations on campus.
Beginning with six young women and now including over 200,000 initiated members and more than 190 collegiate chapters throughout the United States and Canada, Alpha Delta Pi has expanded beyond belief while staying true to its founding ideals: scholarship, high principles of behavior and true friendships.
We live for each other.
