Academics

Joining a sorority in college is a life-changing experience, but garnering an education is the top priority for Kappa. This is why each chapter is expected to maintain academic standards equal to or higher than their university’s or college’s all-sorority GPA. Additionally, each chapter establishes a GPA requirement for active members. 

If a Kappa struggles academically, we help her through it. The Academic Excellence Team meets with her to craft an improvement plan using study tactics and time management. We want each sister to leave college with what they came for: a degree.

Kappa Kappa Gamma continues to uphold academic excellence as a value of our fraternity. The ladies of Gamma Nu achieved a 3.61 average GPA in the Fall 2025 semester. An outstanding 235 sisters earned a 4.0 GPA, and 463 sisters earned a 3.5 or higher GPA in the fall. These ladies will be honored at the 3.5/4.0 celebration this spring. We are extremely proud of our new member class, PC 25, that earned the highest average GPA by PC, a 3.65. Kappa Kappa Gamma has a tradition of awarding members that receive a 4.0 GPA for two consecutive semesters with a pearl drop to attach to their key badge. This achievement is highly esteemed within our chapter, and we are thrilled to have distributed pearl drops to 85 members in 2025. Now, let's hear from our Academic Excellence Director, Hudson Roberts!

"Scholarship is one of the main pillars that shapes the values and legacy of Kappa Kappa Gamma. We are committed to creating an environment where learning is prioritized and celebrated, and each member is encouraged to reach her academic potential. Through mentorship, support, and growth, Kappa Kappa Gamma helps our sisters thrive in academia and beyond. It is an honor to play a small role in continuing the rich legacy that is perpetuated by Kappa Kappa Gamma and by giving back to our organization that gives to us so generously. Our history of success inspires us to continue empowering each other to achieve greatness in all aspects of life!

L&L, Hudson Roberts

The ladies here at 800 West Maple Street take pride in our academics and strive to continue our knowledge every day. We are excited to maintain our success throughout the year!
