About This Organization

Purpose:
Gamma Phi Omega International Sorority, Incorporated (Gamma Phi Omega) is dedicated to inspiring women of ambition and action. We are women that hold high standards and values across academic, personal and professional careers.

Leadership is a main component of the sorority. Enhancing and challenging the abilities of our members is our top objective. Therefore, we seek women who are interested in actively participating as leaders within the organization and on their respective university/college campuses.

While supporting the goals of philanthropic and community service initiatives our members are committed to serving as role models within our communities. Hence, women who are socially aware and responsible captivate us.

A sincere interest in the education process is highly valued. Fulfilling standards of excellence in academics ensures our members have the tools necessary to accomplish scholastic success. Many of our members have gone on to achieve advanced and terminal degrees after completing an undergraduate program.

Maintaining above average standards is required for consideration, and once a member also for good standing within the organization.
