Why ADPi?

ADPi Testimonials

“Joining ADPi was one of the easiest decisions I’ve made since coming to Tech. While adjusting to college was hard, this chapter has made me feel loved, supported, encouraged, and welcomed! ADPi has met me where I’m at time and time again- from helping with banners in the attic to planning trips on the couches in the living room.

I’m thankful to have met some of my best friends and travel buddies, gained the BEST diamond fam (and added the sweetest little to it!) It’s so nice knowing that someone is always thinking about you and checking in. I cherish every debrief and walk, and have grown so much in both faith and character because of these women. Being an ADPi has brought me out of my shell, made me more confident, ambitious, and adventurous! I’m so grateful to call 729 Brittain Drive my home away from home, and can’t wait for the rest of college with @gtadpi 🤍”

“Joining ADPi was one of the best decisions I made when coming to Georgia Tech. Coming to a school where I didn’t know many people was a little bit scary at first, but I can truly say ADPi has been the biggest blessing and truly feels like home. I have felt loved, supported, and grown in so many ways through this chapter.

Some of my favorite parts of ADPi are the friends I have made. I have truly met some of my best friends, travel buddies, and feel so lucky to have the sweetest diamond fam! From sitting out on the patio to meaningful walks around campus just catching up, everyone wants you to succeed and will be there for you through thick and thin. Never have I known more intentional, caring, fun, uplifting girls and I am so grateful to have met them!

Another amazing part of ADPi has been being able to grow as a leader through different positions within the chapter. This past year serving as Membership Engagement Coordinator was so sweet and I was able to learn and grow so much through the sisterhood team. Now, as I serve as the Director of New Member Experience, I cannot wait to lead the new girls into ADPi and serve as a resource for them! I love ADPi and am forever grateful for Zeta Omicron.”

Diamond Duos:

Meet Mei and Emma💎💎!!

“I first met Emma through my best friend from home and her childhood friend, long before either of us knew how important we would become in each other’s lives. On a spring break trip during my senior year of high school, when Emma was a junior, with my best friend, I was told another family would be joining us, the Rose family, and that trip is where Emma and I truly met. Even though we had never met before, we quickly got to know each other during that week, and I immediately felt a genuine connection with her.

Later on, Emma committed to Tech and decided to rush, and when she made it to preference round at ADPi, I happened to be the last person she talked to. In that moment, I just KNEW she was special. Even with my unfortunate case of pink eye keeping me from attending Bid Day, I knew Emma and I were going to be close.

After days filled with hanging out, getting to know each other better, and enjoying plenty of baked goods from her amazing home bakery, we officially became big and little. I couldn’t be more grateful to have a little who is also one of my best friends. Someone I can laugh with, spend time with, and FaceTime at any moment. I’ve always dreamed of having a sister and being a role model as an only child, and Emma has truly shown me that your best friend can also be your little, and that I can be a mentor while gaining a sister for life. LOVE YOU EMMA AND ADPI!!🩵🩵🩵”

“Happenstance - the perfect word to describe how I first met Mei.

Life has a funny way of working its magic and often times you don’t realize it until you look back. I always had a dream of attending Georgia Tech and being in a sorority. It’s all I’ve ever known. It was a random trip where I met Mei and she changed the trajectory of my planned path. When I committed to Tech - Mei was one of the first to congratulate me- always cheering me on!

Fast forward to Rush, I was so excited when Mei approached on pref day! It’s hard to even put into words honestly. It felt like one of those moments where everything just clicked, and I knew ADPi was where I was meant to be. Mei and I had an instant connection from the very start, and I quickly realized how infectious her personality is—everyone on campus seemed to know and love her. She introduced me to so many of her friends, making me feel completely welcome and an instant part of the community.

Mei becoming my big couldn’t have been a better fit! She's the one I can always count on, the person I look forward to seeing every day. She's my go-to person, and I can't imagine life without her now! I am looking forward to some of the best years of my life, with Mei by my side! 🤍🦁🩵”

Meet AC and Alana 💎💎!!

“I first met Alana while looking at Tech during my senior year of high school. We ended up being put in the same quad during freshman year and instantly became close friends. Alana is the most servant-hearted person I have ever met, and she never fails to do the little things for me. Alana is extremely hardworking and puts in hours behind the scenes for our chapter every week. Through the many ups and downs of college-life, I can always count on Alana to be there for me. We both studied abroad at GTL this past summer, and we share some of the best memories from exploring Europe together. I’m lucky enough to get another year with Alana as my roommate and this time we live in the ADPi house! She has shown me what it truly means to be a genuine friend, and I cannot wait to see what the future holds for us.”

- Anna Carlton Maddox, AC ’22

“Life with AC has been so much fun! Being freshman roommates and being in ADPi together was the start to our friendship, but more importantly AC became one of my closest friends so quickly because she is one of the most genuine and intentional people I know. Being around AC makes me a better person since she is so driven and dedicated to anything that she does. Her smile and fun personality is so contagious to everyone around her. I have made the best memories dancing with her at events, going on coffee dates, studying abroad this past summer, and laughing as we have late night talks in our ADPi room. I know that I can go to her about anything, and she will always know the right thing to say. This sweet friendship of ours is for a lifetime and means so much to me. I am so incredibly grateful for such an amazing friend, and I can’t wait for all our fun memories to come.”

Meet Ellie and Rachel💎💎!!

“I love ADPi because it has given me a true sense of sisterhood and belonging, and one of the best parts of that has been my roommate Rachel! She’s made my college experience even more special. Rachel is incredibly sweet, funny, and reliable! Being in ADPi together has made our bond even stronger, and I’m so grateful for both the ADPi and the amazing friendship we share!!”

- Ellie Skelton, AC ’23

“Being in ADPi with Ellie has made my college experience so fun and special. Ellie is so intentional and is always there for me whenever I need her. She makes coming back to school after a break so much easier and is my best friend. Being in ADPi together has allowed us to make even more memories together and experience things as simple yet special as meals together every day. I love her!”
