CU Denver was excited to announce the launch of the Sorority & Fraternity Life (SFL) program in the Spring of 2022. By recently starting a sorority and fraternity community, we have had the unique opportunity to harness the impactful and empowering experiences these types of organizations provide and cultivate a community centered on participants’ sense of belonging, inclusiveness, and leadership development.
- A fraternity or sorority is a brotherhood, sisterhood, or siblinghood formed around common values, goals, and aspirations.
- The members who form a fraternity or sorority share a desire to make an impact on the communities they inhabit while learning to become a better version of themselves.

New transfer students may participate in recruitment during their first semester.

Alpha Phi
Alpha Phi’s uniqueness is rooted in the spirit of innovation originated by Alpha Phi’s ten Founders in 1872. As they made history as the first female students on campus, several decided that they were not satisfied with merely participating in the classroom. Denied admission to the men’s fraternities, thier Founders chose to create their own fraternity for women. The very heart of Alpha Phi membership is connected by a common set of ideals and a unique bond of sisterhood, a spirit of generosity, high expectations for character, and a drive for innovation.
