Kappa Alpha Theta - ΚΑΘ Sorority Ratings at CP

A lot of people have nasty things to say about Theta because they’re considered a “lower house,” but honestly, I think they get way more hate than they deserve. I’m not personally in Theta, but I have friends who are, and they only have great things to say about it. There’s so much diversity and personality in this chapter, and it’s honestly refreshing. They accept so many different types of girls, especially those who don’t fit the stereotypical sorority image, and I genuinely think that’s part of why people rank them lower which says more about sorority culture than it does about Theta. The girls I’ve met are also super involved on campus, whether it’s clubs, school boards, or other organizations. There’s a good mix of girls who love going out and girls who are more chill and would rather stay in. Their sisterhood might be smaller, but they actually seem to know each other and have real relationships, which you can’t always say about bigger chapters. They’re also just nice asf. Obviously there’s good and bad in every chapter, but I genuinely don’t think I’ve ever met a mean Theta. Aren’t sororities supposed to be about sisterhood and uplifting each other? It’s weird seeing girls preach about being “girls’ girls” while tearing down an entire chapter because they don’t fit some stereotypical image. Being diverse, welcoming, and accepting shouldn’t make a chapter “lower.” If anything, that seems way closer to what sisterhood is actually supposed to be about. Just my thoughts tho.

Thetas are smart, outgoing and very involved in campus life. A Theta friend is a friend for life. Theta requires members to keep their grades up, commit to community service, behave responsibly.

By far the most diverse sorority on campus, in many ways. There are Thetas who go to frat parties every weekend and Thetas who are more of the introverted bookworm type. Even though there is a very wide range of personalities it seems like they have a great sisterhood and it's probably easier for them to be tight because they are one of the smaller chapters. Not a top house but the new MC is promising so Theta might be on the up in the next few years.

The negative posts are from some snarky girls in other sororities and a couple who didn’t get in. If your goal is to get wasted at as many frat parties as possible, Theta might not be for you. If you want a great sisterhood with amazing, smart women who do fun and meaningful activities, Theta is perfect. Theta’s reputation nationally is excellent. Don’t let a few negative reviews on Cal Poly’s site detract you from this awesome sorority.

Theta is a great house with a lot of wonderful women who are trying to build an amazing sorority. You have a great charity that they support and I love that they’re close to campus.

Thetas are kind, social, intelligent, and creative! They know how to have a good time but also highly value education and self-improvement.

This group is not very active on campus, quirky not as cool as others. Socially not as out there as others

Kappa Alpha Theta is known for a strong sisterhood, their involvement in the community, and being inclusive. Most of the girls are nice and outgoing but they are a very small sorority. Some of them go out and party but Theta is definitely not top tier.

All the girls are really nice but I wanted to clear up what the last two reviews said. They are definitely not "rising to the top" or "a top house" at Cal Poly. They are considered more of the bookworm/awkward type but they do have an amazing sisterhood and do a lot of philanthropy events. The other comments are misleading because I don't think I have ever seen a Theta at a frat party, nor do I hear about them having mixers with the frats. Again, super nice girls but definitely no "clout" around campus (which doesn't matter if you're in greek life for the right reasons).

Kappa is definitely moving up in the ranks. It is a newer house but has already established itself as a top house. Kappas are down to earth and beautiful, as well as smart. They are well rounded but still know how to have a good time.
