Become a Member

To become a member of Kappa Delta Chi you should contact one of our undergraduate chapters listed on the chapter directory. You can find out when the open rush schedule is by contacting the chapter. Open rush is when interested women can learn more about the organization. Chapters hold open rush events normally at the beginning of the fall and spring semesters. Other recruitment events may be held during the semester, but you must contact each chapter to find out when their open rush events will be held. You may contact the Chapter Recruitment Officer for more information. Read about why young women just like you chose to be a part of kdchi by visiting our testimonials page.
