Legacies

SOME WOMEN ARE INTRODUCED TO ALPHA CHI OMEGA BY THEIR MOTHER, GRANDMOTHER OR SISTER.

Alpha Chi Omega considers a legacy to be a sister, daughter, granddaughter or great-granddaughter of a member. The Alpha Chi Omega member and her family member define their legacy relationship, i.e. step relations, blended families, etc.

Any potential new member who meets college/university requirements as well as the membership standards outlined in the policies of Alpha Chi Omega is eligible to receive a bid from Alpha Chi Omega. As of fall 2021, chapters will no longer provide preferential treatment to legacies or any other potential new members in the recruitment process.

We encourage our alumnae members to share with their legacies the impact of Alpha Chi Omega on their lives. Further, the work of alumnae to submit recommendations on behalf of a legacy continues to be vital to the success of recruitment and the future of our organization.
