1 What is Mu Delta Alpha Sorority, Inc. and who can join?
Mu Delta Alpha is the first Muslim-interest sorority in the United States, founded at the
University of Texas at Dallas. We are open to college-enrolled women of all backgrounds
who believe in our values of Islam, sisterhood, professionalism, and service. You do not
need to be Muslim to join, but you must respect and uphold the inclusive and faith-centered
mission we represent.
2. Is Mu Delta Alpha Sorority, Inc. a safe and supportive space for Muslim women?
Yes. MDA was created to provide a safe, empowering, and spiritually respectful space where
Muslim women can thrive academically, professionally, and socially—without
compromising their values. Our events, leadership programs, and community service
projects are designed to foster growth in a halal, judgment-free environment.
3. Does Mu Delta Alpha participate in hazing or harmful pledge practices?
Absolutely not. Mu Delta Alpha has a zero-tolerance policy for hazing or any form of abuse.
We are a legally incorporated 501(c)(7) nonprofit and a proud member of the National
Multicultural Greek Council (NMGC). All intake and member education activities are aligned
with national anti-hazing laws and university regulations.
4. What are the time and financial commitments of joining?
Members are expected to participate in chapter meetings, service events, and leadership
development programs. Financially, there are national and chapter dues to support
operations, insurance, and philanthropy—but we are fully transparent about costs before
intake. We prioritize quality over quantity, and members are encouraged to balance
academics and sorority life.
