Discover a place like no other in Kappa, where every day is filled with smiles, support, and friendships that will last a lifetime. Kappas inspire one another to become the best version of themselves and to always dream boldly and live fully.
1. You’ll explore new leadership opportunities.
“The minute I walked into Kappa, I felt at home. I could not imagine a more supportive group of people I would want to surround myself with during college, and beyond! I am so grateful that I get to be the President of such an encouraging, and strong organization. I hope to further this empowering sisterhood during my time as President so everyone feels as at home as I do.” – Abby Behailu, Wisconsin
2. You’ll find your chosen family.
“When I met the Kappa girls my freshman year, I felt the most positive and friendly energy. Recruitment can be a stressful time, but when I was around this chapter it felt so right. I remember saying on Bid Day, ‘I can’t wait to find my family within this chapter since my family is so far away.’ Freshman Anežka would be so happy to know that wish came true. If I’m having a bad day, I know the second I’m around my sisters, my mood will change for the better. Kappa has made me feel so welcome since the beginning and I can’t wait to make this year’s new members feel that way too!” – Anežka Liskova, Pepperdine
3. You’ll make lifelong friends.
“From the moment I stepped into the house, I felt comfortable and accepted. The conversations were easy going and it felt like I had friends in Kappa no matter what decision I made during Recruitment. Being a Kappa is the easiest and best decision I have made during college. I am constantly supported and loved and have made my lifelong friends who will stand by my side no matter what!” – Grace Langston, Texas A&M
4. You’ll join something bigger than yourself.
“When I decided to go through Recruitment, I wanted to join an organization that values morality, class, kindness, and integrity. I wanted to be a part of something bigger than myself and something that would push me to become the best woman I can be. Kappa is all of those things and more. Kappa is a late-night fast food run screaming 2000s hits, a sister helping you with a class she took last semester, or sisters who go above and beyond to make your birthday special. Kappa is honest, genuine, and sincere, and the women embody the truest form of sisterhood.” – Kamden Mulder, Hillsdale
5. You’ll be surrounded by people who encourage you to be your best.
"Coming into college, I wasn't sure if I saw myself in a sorority. I remember being so nervous about saying the right thing during Recruitment. But Kappa was the first house where I walked out with a smile on my face and realized I didn't have to try to fit in; I was loved for being myself. These women instantly made Kappa a home away from home. Kappa has pushed me to become the best version of myself and challenged me in new ways like stepping into my position as Vice President of Finance. I never could’ve pictured myself taking on leadership but I have absolutely loved getting to give back to the chapter that continues to give me the college experience I dreamed of!” – Maddie Lertola, Arizona State
6. You’ll find new ways to give back.
“I chose Kappa because all the girls were so kind and welcoming. It was a great way to meet strong, independent women who had the same interests as me. Additionally, our philanthropic activities have allowed me to give back to the community and make a positive impact. I am grateful for the memories and experiences that will stay with me for a lifetime. I now have the best support system, and lifelong friends because of Kappa.” – Angelique Barger, SIUE
7. You’ll experience genuine sisterhood.
“When I asked someone one word to describe Kappa during Recruitment, almost every girl said the same thing: genuine. I have undoubtedly found some of my best friends, future bridesmaids, and sisters for life through Kappa! It’s been such an honor to be a part of an organization of strong, authentic women who consistently inspire me to be the best version of myself each and every day.” – Jaclyn Cadunzi, Tennessee
8. You’ll find your soul sisters.
“I could be myself with Kappas. I could laugh louder, be weirder, and open up about the hard things in life. I found my best friends and my absolute soul sisters. I was terrified I wouldn’t find my community when transitioning to college or that I would have to change who I was but in Kappa, I can be completely myself. Going Kappa was the best decision I made and I know the next few years will be the best with my girls!” – Ella Skillman, Missouri
9. You’ll feel comfortable being the real you.
“At Kappa, I felt most comfortable sharing different parts of myself and was so excited to get to know them more. I’m so thankful I went Kappa because this has all proven to be true and I feel so welcomed every day! I truly couldn’t imagine my life without Kappa in it!” – Marina Sellers, Washington
10. You’ll find role models.
“When I was a freshman, I was both excited and anxious to see what my next three years would look like. These feelings were immediately put to ease when I started meeting older people in classes and around campus. Many of the girls I met and saw around campus were in Kappa and reminded me a little bit of myself. I could tell this group of women embodied certain morals I carry out in my own life. After Recruitment, when I became a part of this sisterhood, I felt everyone working to create authentic and organic connections that made me know I had people in my corner, always looking out for me. They made me feel so welcomed and natural in an environment I was so new to and for that I’m so grateful. While it was nerve-racking for me to start a new stage of my life at college, it became so much easier when I knew I had so many people who would always be there for me. I admire the women in Kappa along with the loyalty and sense of family they create within our chapter. I feel lucky to call these strong, caring, and compassionate women my sisters.” – Annie Sherman, Lafayette
