Xi Boutique is the official online store of Alpha Xi Delta, offering a curated selection of apparel, accessories, gifts, and keepsakes that celebrate our Sisterhood in style. All purchases from Xi Boutique directly support Alpha Xi Delta, helping fund national programming, leadership development, and the lifelong member experience.
Alpha Xi Deltas must purchase merchandise bearing our marks only from approved licensed vendors. These vendors pay royalties to Alpha Xi Delta for the opportunity to manufacture products bearing our trademarks, and this revenue benefits Alpha Xi Delta each year.
There are many badge options to choose from, including elegant diamonds or refined pearls.
Legacies are any granddaughter, daughter, sister, or niece of an Alpha Xi Delta member in good standing, as well as step- or half-relations resulting from blended or other non-traditional family structures. Alpha Xi Delta legacies are treated equally to all Potential New Members during recruitment and are not given preferential treatment during the recruitment process.
Alumnae information is available to members who want to connect with other Sisters to join alumnae associations, invite them to chapter events and more. Requests are processed each Thursday.
Alpha Xi Delta honors the lifelong commitment of its members through the Membership Milestones program, recognizing Sisters who have reached significant anniversaries in their membership:
Members with a valid mailing address on file by February 1 will receive a personalized 5×7 certificate to commemorate this milestone. Additionally, Alpha Xi Delta recognizes 25 years of membership with a special charm featuring two roses enclosed in a rectangular frame, available for purchase through Herff Jones. Milestone jewelry for the 50-, 60-, and 75-year anniversaries can also be purchased from Herff Jones.
Of course! Membership in Alpha Xi Delta is for a lifetime. We encourage you to join an alumnae association, attend Book Club, volunteer or find a way to continue the bonds of Sisterhood that fits with where you’re at in life.
Yes! A woman who is not a member of any other National Panhellenic Conference sorority may be invited into alumna membership in Alpha Xi Delta. An alumnae association, college chapter or member may recommend for initiation a woman whose membership would be of value to the Fraternity and who would bring credit to Alpha Xi Delta in the community.
To do this, the petition for alumna membership is to be completed and signed by a college chapter, an alumnae association or an Alpha Xi Delta member. The completed petition, which can be found in the Member Portal, is to be sent to the National Membership Status Chair BEFORE membership is offered to the prospective candidate. If the petition is approved, the National Membership Status Chair, on behalf of National Council, issues the membership invitation.
In addition, each alumna initiate must have a sponsor-mentor who is willing to see that the New Member is educated about Alpha Xi Delta. Alumnae Initiate Petitions must be received no later than two weeks prior to a chapter’s scheduled Initiation Ceremony. This is to allow time for processing and approval of paperwork. Each candidate for alumna membership is required to pay the national initiation fee and to purchase a Quill badge of her choice. These transactions are handled through Fraternity Headquarters.
A member’s Quill badge may be buried with the member, given to another member of Alpha Xi Delta (through a bequest) or returned to Fraternity Headquarters.
You can find all alumnae association reports and resources in the Member Portal.
Yes! Our Woman of Distinction award is given at National Convention and recognizes alumnae who exhibit excellence and extraordinary leadership in their chosen career, which may be a profession or in volunteer service. More information about this award and other alumnae awards can be found in the Member Portal.
