Lambda Phi Epsilon is a social and service fraternity with Asian-American concerns and interests in mind, like many other fraternities, our goal is to establish and perpetuate Brotherhood and fellowship among its members. As the fastest growing fraternity with 46 chapters from coast to coast and Canada, Lambda Phi Epsilon provides a common ground for men of all ethnicities with similar goals and beliefs to come together and unite as one. Grounded on the principles of wisdom, honor, and courage Lambda Phi Epsilon continues to teach young men principles of leadership and strong moral character.

Rush is a structured one to two week period when we, the brothers of Lambda Phi Epsilon, will host events where interested applicants can come out to meet the brothers and to find out more about the fraternity in person. Rush also gives us a chance to meet you and learn more about you. There is no obligation during rush and everything is free. Come out and experience what the only nationally recognized and best Asian-American interest fraternity on campus is all about. Learn what brotherhood, pride, leadership, unity and family means to us. The only thing you have to do is relax, enjoy yourself and feel free to ask plenty of questions!

There are brothers in chapters of Lambda Phi Epsilon all over the nation of non-Asian descent. Lambda Phi Epsilon stresses that it is an Asian-American INTEREST Fraternity, which means that anyone who is interested in our goals, both Asian and non-Asian, are encouraged to join. As Americans, we all share similar experiences and thoughts, and whether or not you understand or come from an Asian culture does not matter, so long as you are interested to learn from and interact with people who have. If you feel that you have an interest for Asian awareness or want to, come out and rush Lambda Phi Epsilon.

Why join Lambda Phi Epsilon? Why not one of a number of Asian organizations on campus? By joining, you will enter a brotherhood that is rich in tradition and strong in its bonds. The brotherhood that a fraternity offers forms friendships that last a lifetime. Unlike many of your college friends, the bonds that you form in the fraternity last much longer than the four years you may spend in college. Many people complain about the lack of longevity that their current friendships have. Many friends turn out to be "semester" friends, whom you rarely see after your association with them is over. Lambda Phi Epsilon offers brotherhood that will endure the passage of time. If you have ever had a best friend, you will know the closeness that you feel with that particular person. The fraternity offers the opportunity to feel that way with numerous people.

“I wanted to join something lasting, something that would mold UVa’s history. In a school that’s full of tradition, you want to be able to set the tradition. I also wanted to impact the Asian-American community, to make a difference.”

“At first I just thought the guys were chill and the jackets were pretty hot. I later realized that it was something that would become a part of me for the rest of my life.”

“Lambda Phi Epsilon caught my interest because of its great networking opportunities and alumni relations. You know the saying: “its not about what you know, but who you know”. Our alumni have very close relationships with the active members of the fraternity and well, with over 40 LFE chapters including many that are at the most prestigious universities nationwide such as Stanford, Cornell. Hopkins, UPenn, UVA and Berkeley… there are vast amounts of opportunities and ‘hook ups’ from successful alumni for either internships or jobs after college. And that never hurts!”
