Hi all,
I've been reading this forum for a couple of weeks now and I've finally summoned enough courage to post my own message.
I am a recent college graduate (last May) and I am very interested in joining AOPi. I know that there are several ladies on this message board that have become AIs of AOPi, so I was hoping that I could get some advice. I haven't contacted HG yet, but I'm hoping with some support and love

I'll send off that e-mail within the next few days.
I have several concerns/questions about joining as an AI. First and foremost, does it hurt my chances by not knowing any AOPi members? I am interested in the organization for its values and for what it stands for -- but I'm worried that this won't be enough in order for me to become a member after college.
Secondly, I was part of a local sorority during my undergraduate years. The sorority eventually became a chapter of another sorority, but I chose not to affiliate with at sorority. Neither of the two aforemementioned sororities were NPC members. Nonetheless, does this hurt my chances for AI?
Thanks in Advance!
