"Coming from a huge family, I was really nervous to come to college and not have them close to me. When I decided to rush, a community of girls to laugh with and support me was all I was looking for, and it is exactly what I have found in Alpha Phi. The moment I walked into Alpha Phi, I felt so comfortable. This sisterhood has connected me with my best friends and an entire network of girls that I'm blessed to be supporting and have to support me. Go Greek Go APHI!!!"

"Coming to UNC as an out of state student was super intimidating, so I knew I wanted to find a group of people that I could connect with and make the big school feel a little smaller. Alpha Phi was exactly was I was looking for!!! From the moment I stepped into the house, I felt an overwhelming sense of comfort. Alpha Phi has provided me with an amazing sisterhood, and I am forever thankful for the friends I have made. AOE!!!" PC '23

"Coming into college I knew I wanted to rush because I wanted to surround myself with girls I look up to and feel fully like myself around. When I preffed aphi and talked to Mack, my now gbig, she made me feel so seen and I knew that’s the type of girls I want in the sorority I went. Looking back, I definitely made the right decision because APhi has given me amazing experiences and my lifelong best friends!!"

"The first time I ever visited UNC (after a LONG road trip from Chicago to Chapel Hill), I remember finishing my tour and saying “this feels like home.” Coming to UNC as an out-of-state student, I knew I loved Carolina, but I was still incredibly nervous about leaving everyone and everything from home behind. I began to look for new friends and new opportunities to get involved in to help me settle in! In the first week, I met my now best friend (@ally.guerrero), who would end up being my sister in APhi after a meal at the dining hall. I started running, I joined clubs, yet, nothing has felt like home the same way Alpha Phi does! Whenever I walk in for meals, I know I’ll have someone to eat and talk about anything with. When I run into APhis on campus, I know they’ll smile and invite me to wherever they’re going. When I want to go on a hot girl walk, get a sweet treat, or simply want someone to relax with, @catherineyoungggg (the best big ever) is always there for me! Being in APhi has made feeling at home here so easy. I’m so thankful to have found a place & people where I can be myself and feel supported as I grow and become a better version of myself! 🩵"

"When graduating from my small high school and dance studio also meant leaving my best friends, the recruitment process was an important time for me to find girls who would bring me just as much joy, and boy did I find just that and more! APhi has given me my sisters, future bridesmaids, and my biggest cheerleaders, and I wouldn’t trade them for the world! They are truly the sweetest!"
