Iota Xi

at Worcester Polytechnic Institute

Academics

Scholarship is one of the core values of Alpha Xi Delta, and we are dedicated to ensuring that every sister has the opportunity to realize her academic potential. The Iota Xi chapter is a diverse group of intelligent sisters belonging to many majors, honor societies, and professional organizations on campus.

Our sisters go above and beyond both academically and professionally. In fact, we are proud to say that our chapter was recognized nationally with the Anna Baldwin Award for maintaining the highest average chapter GPA over the past two years!

Academic Plan

Our Academic Plan is a resource to provide academic support and encouragement to any sister who needs it. Sisters are encouraged to set academic goals, develop effective study habits, and utilize academic resources on campus and within our chapter.

Academic Recognition

Our chapter has its own academic achievement director whose goal is to coordinate programs and activities for the chapter that will help each member achieve academic success. As a chapter, we plan weekly study hours for the entire chapter to grow together. 

In addition as a chapter, we encourage involvement in academic honor societies and applications for academic scholarships and awards. Our academic achievement director presents programs to the chapter on various aspects of scholarship and shares on-campus resources for academic support to our sisters, and provides weekly study tips for our sisters to collaborate and reflect on. 

Destress

We are aware of the stresses and challenges that our sisters may face throughout the term. Destress events provide time to relax and bond with one another by watching movies, eating ice cream, playing card games, or even finger painting! While we believe that achieving academic excellence is extremely important, it is just as important to find time to destress with sisters!
