College is a time to explore who you are, what matters to you, and what value you want to bring to the world! And joining a sorority is about finding your people – the women who will cheer you on and challenge you along the way. Your future sisters will be there to support you as you learn all that you’re capable of, and through the sorority experience you’ll tap into your potential through exploring leadership, giving back to the community, and serving others.
- Sorority is… coming together to make a difference! Sororities bring incredible women together and provide outlets and support for us to do real good in our community. We believe there is no group at American University that has the power to impact our world like sororities!
- Sorority is… fun! It’s about always having those go-to girls you can sing at the top of your lungs with, late-night study buddies, that sister who is there when you need ice cream (or a hug), and a mentor who inspires you to be the best version of you.
- Sorority is… a deep network and well of opportunities that will help you succeed – beyond what you can imagine today. Your sorority helps you find your niche at [school] through opportunities to connect and lead, and the benefits of the sorority experience are real. Sorority women are three times as likely to have an internship in school and twice as likely to have a job when they graduate.
- Sorority is… a community of support. You’ve heard about our “sisterhood.” Sororities provide a family and a home away from home. Your sisters will be there for you – for celebrating your wins, for tough conversations, and for when you need a shoulder to lean on. Sisterhood is deeper than friendship and lasts far beyond the few years we’re in college.
Joining Gamma Delta
- Joining a sorority can be an important part of the collegiate experience – it can help you navigate these exciting and sometimes challenging times. Regardless of the campus, Phi Mu provides a place you can call home – a place where you belong and are surrounded by women who help you become your best self. We hope you will read more about what makes the Phi Mu experience unique and learn about our sisterhood.At American University, Formal Recruitment occurs at the beginning of the Spring semester. After going through a three-day mutual selection process, sisters are matched with the sorority that fits them best. "Phi Mu is where I found my home. As a freshman, I was scared to go through recruitment and unsure how I would fit in. On the first day, I knew that Phi Mu was my home. It was easy to see how much the girls loved eachother, and in my now three years as a sister, it is clear that this is central to the Phi Mu experience. It has offered me leadership, connected me with internship and academic opportunities, and allowed me to become the best version of myself. Go Greek, Go Phi Mu!" - Emily Yucht, VP Recruitment and Growth To learn more about the recruitment process, look here: https://www.americanpanhellenic.com/
