What you are doing so far is great. It really shows initiative which is admirable. I would advise looking over the centennial website which has a lot of great information pertaining to the history of the organization. It is great to know the founders and the history of your school’s chapter but extensive studying and research is not necessary after all, you have to have time to sleep! (You will be taught much of what you’ll need to know and you will continue to learn through out your lifetime as a member of the sorority) I will say you should spend some time thinking about why you personally want to join Alpha Kappa Alpha. This question in itself can be a very difficult one to answer and express in words but you will have to do this prior to the official rush. Also, it is wonderful that you are so involved and active on campus. However, it is important not to lose sight of yourself to be apart of something else. The ladies of Alpha Kappa Alpha are looking for what you can bring to the organization, not a generic copy of what you think you should be.

I hope this helps and good luck to you.

I am not a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha but I would recommend searching the sorority’s national website www.aka1908.com for more info about the sorority’s history and other pertinent information.
