An Important Note About Legacies
A legacy is defined as a daughter, granddaughter, great-granddaughter, or sister of a Kappa Alpha Theta member. Kappa Alpha Theta has eliminated all preferential treatment previously given to legacies during the recruitment process. By eliminating preferential treatment for legacies, we ensure that PNMs are not receiving additional credit for things beyond their control.
