Electronic Reference Filing
Writing a Reference: Fall 2026 & Spring 2027

Kappa Kappa Gamma references will only be accepted and submitted through the Kappa Fraternity website: www.kappakappagamma.org/write-a-reference. No paper references will be accepted.

The potential new member (PNM) should provide the Kappa reference writer with an electronic copy of her social resume and one digital photograph only.

Kappas writing references will complete the reference form online at the Kappa Kappa Gamma website (www.kappakappagamma.org/write-a-reference). This form goes directly to the university that the PNM is attending.

There are no additional letters of support. Please do not e-mail or mail letters of support or references to the Houston Recruitment Committee or to the chapters; the online reference is all that the chapters need or want, and letters of support are strongly discouraged.

Please note that the Houston Recruitment Committee cannot submit a reference online on your behalf. You must be logged in to the Kappa Kappa Gamma Fraternity website as your submission is your endorsement and specific to you.

Help submitting an online reference or obtaining a username or password for the website is available by calling the fraternity at 1-866-KKG-1870 (1-866-554-1870). The Houston Recruitment Committee is happy to answer any questions about the process, but we are not able to submit on your behalf.

IMPORTANT!

After completing the online reference form at www.kappakappagamma.org/write-a-reference, the Kappa reference writer should forward the electronic social resume and the digital photograph to the Houston Alumnae Association Recruitment Committee email at kkghouston@gmail.com. Please use the PNM’s name and university (if known) as the subject line. By providing this information, the Houston Alumnae Association Recruitment Committee will be able to advocate for the PNM with our Kappa collegians during recruitment.

Please do not send extra materials such as score reports, transcripts, or letters of support. The social resume and one digital photograph is all that is needed.

The links below provide the information that you need to present and support candidates to the chapters of Kappa Kappa Gamma.
