We hold physical training sessions every Monday and Wednesday at 6:00 AM that have approximately 60 cadets in attendance. Cadets spend approximately an hour on cardio and weightlifting according to set workouts each week. In the fall, we offer a weekend training day for cadets to improve their military skills, including land navigation and small unit tactics. Through mission scenarios and airsoft fights, this training immerses cadets in the military environment to improve our leadership capabilities and prepare to be Air Force officers. Each spring, we host a Dining Out with over 50 UVA cadets in attendance. Similar to a formal, Dining Out invites family members and partners to join the AFROTC community for an evening of dinner, awards, and performances. In November, we organize and participate in a Veterans' Day ceremony honoring prisoners of war and those servicemembers missing in action.
The Alpha Kappa chapter of Alpha Chi Sigma is the one and only professional chemistry fraternity at UVA! We are a diverse and close-knit group of individuals from various fields of study and different backgrounds in education united by a passion for chemistry and science. We aim to promote an interest in science and chemistry throughout the Charlottesville-UVA community through a variety of service and outreach projects and to create a network of scientists and science enthusiasts, including professors and students, here at UVA. Many of our brothers are highly involved in the science departments at UVA as teaching assistants, researchers, and tutors. We work closely with the Chemistry department to create events and opportunities for students to get involved in the sciences.
Alpha Epsilon Delta is the only national premedical honor society. It was founded in 1926 at the University of Alabama and is currently one of the 57 members of the Association of College Honor Societies. Alpha Epsilon Delta supports collegiate chapters in identifying premedical students of excellence and imposing an obligation of continuing achievement upon such students. Alpha Epsilon Delta is not only an honor society, it is also a service organization. AED members are active in their efforts to promote premedical education in the University community through many diverse programs such as the speaker series, premedical newsletters and handbooks, MCAT reviews, tutoring and peer-advising, mentoring, interviewing, and social events. For many students, AED is a principal extracurricular activity. The varied functions of AED provided activities for intellectual development and stimulation of the individual members and a program of service to the Grounds that will include activities of benefit to non-members as well as members.

Alpha Phi Omega is a gender-inclusive service fraternity that provides community service to the Charlottesville area and beyond. We put an emphasis on prioritizing the needs of all of our sites to ensure we can provide the best service possible, and we encourage all members to both find meaning with our several service opportunities like Midweeks (~1 hour long service projects during the week) and Saturday Projects (~3 hour long service projects on Saturdays), and to put in the effort to actually get to know all of our various sites. At the same time, we also have an active social aspect of our chapter as we encourage all members to get to know one another and bond through several social events throughout the semester. Members also have numerous opportunities to work on leadership skills, both within the organization and during our service projects, as we believe leading is one of the best ways to provide the best service. So, if you're looking for an organization that is all about doing meaning service alongside people who enjoy doing community service just as much, APO is for you!
Alpha Rho Chi is an architecture and design-based national academic fraternity, and here at UVA, a student-led organization that aims to create relationships among students of all years and disciplines, relating to the School of Architecture, through philanthropic, educational, and social events within the school and local community. Members have opportunities to participate in events and programs to further their leadership involvement, career development, and connections with other students through consistent programming that is centered around the three main pillars of philanthropy, professional development, and relationship-building. APX has an extensive list of activities planned for this semester, including partnering with the Career Center for professional development-centered events, firm crawls, days of service and volunteering opportunities, peer mentoring, and much more. Being a chapter of a widespread national organization also gives us access to a broad network of APX alumni and fellow design students at other universities, as well as opportunities for major scholarships and leadership conferences. We welcome students of all backgrounds and design disciplines, at both the graduate and undergraduate levels. Even though we are known nationally as a provisional chapter of a “fraternity,” our organization is open to and made up of a gender-inclusive group of students. Note: The included website URL is technically for our chapter, given by the National Organization; however, it is not a primary form of organization or contact for our group. Other forms of contact/outreach/communication include our Instagram, GroupMe, and emailing list. More information about APX's National Organization can be found here: https://alpharhochi.org
