New Member Program

We strive to bring women into our Sisterhood who are going to be leaders, contributors and a Sister in every sense of the word. Real Merit and Worth: The New Member Program was designed with this in mind – enhancing leadership skills, setting goals, understanding who Alpha Xi Delta is at her core and providing opportunities for our newest members to create deep, meaningful relationships with each other, the chapter and our national organization. When you join Alpha Xi Delta, you will grow in your talents and strengths, all with the support of your Sisters.

From the moment our new members jump into the awaiting arms of their newfound sisters on bid day, they are completely immersed in the Alpha Xi Delta experience. New members begin by learning the National and chapter history of Alpha Xi Delta, all the while participating in chapter events. New members attend various sisterhoods, retreats, chapter meetings, and educational sessions, allowing them to grow as members of Alpha Xi Delta. They soon develop strong bonds with other sisters in the chapter, leading up to the joys of revealing their big sisters! Through these experiences, new members discover the true meaning of friendship and sisterhood. The new member experience eventually culminates in their initiation as Alpha Xi Deltas.

Alpha Xi Delta has a zero tolerance policy for hazing. Learn more about Alpha Xi Delta's stance and TCNJ Panhellenic Association's policy.
