"As cheesey as it sounds, I chose to go through recruitment in order to find my home away from home. I wanted to find a group of people that would go on adventures with me, laugh with me, study until 2am with me, and above all else love and support me no matter what happens. I found that home in the wonderful sisters of Iota Alpha. The diversity of my chapter astounds me. No matter what the situation there is always a sister there for you. Whether it is going to get coffee or helping study for exams, these sisters embody everything it means to be friends and sisters."

"Alpha Xi Delta because you'll never feel alone. You'll never feel unacceptable or incapable. Choose Alpha Xi because seeing a sister's smile on campus can brighten any bad day, and knowing you can have that effect on someone else is a magical thing."

"Joining Alpha Xi Delta shaped my college experience so much. I've met my best friends through our chapter, and I can't imagine my life without those sisters. Now that I'm an alumna, I'm starting to see how Alpha Xi Delta will connect me to people and opportunities all over the country. This sisterhood goes beyond our chapter and our college years...It's a place I'll call home for life."

"I transferred to George Mason University as a sophomore and was nervous about making friends and getting involved. I participated in Fall Formal Recruitment 2013 because I was encouraged to join Greek Life by my family. I walked into the Alpha Xi Delta room on the first night and it felt like I belonged. The girls were so welcoming and so accepting of everyone. I noticed how the sisters each had their own unique personality yet had a strong sisterhood all together. They made me feel at ease immediately and I really enjoyed my time with them. I was so happy when they extended a bid to me on bid day. During the new member period, they made sure all of us felt like we were a part of the sorority and that we were enjoying ourselves as we got to know all of the sisters. Throughout my time in Alpha Xi Delta I have become a lot more confident in myself, have made amazing new friends, have become more involved in student life at Mason and I am very proud of the person I have become. Thanks to my sisters in Alpha Xi Delta I am realizing my potential and I am confident I will achieve my goals in the future."

"I joined Alpha Xi Delta my second semester of freshman year and my only regret is not doing it my first semester. I have not only gained friends, but sisters who will always be part of my life even after my college career is over. The women of Alpha Xi Delta have inspired me to work hard to achieve my goals and to be the best version of me that I can be."
Maribel Soberanis, Spring 2015
"I joined Alpha Xi Delta and it has become a wonderful aspect in my life that has given me opportunities to better myself and grow whether it be socially, professionally, academically or internally. Alpha Xi Delta has given me more than I could have ever asked for!"
Alexis Gliser, Fall 2015
"Joining a sorority is more than letters on a shirt. It’s about growing as an individual and realizing your potential. It's hard to put into words what being a part of Alpha Xi Delta really means to me. Alpha Xi Delta has given me a home; I have been given sisters who bring out the best in me. I met my best friends through AXID and established lifelong friendships with my sisters. The best part of it all is being a part of something bigger than myself. I am forever grateful for this sisterhood."
