Letter from the President

Welcome to the official website of the Alpha Chapter of Beta Alpha Psi at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign! I encourage you to explore our website and social media platforms to learn more about the organization.
Beta Alpha Psi at the University of Illinois is a professional business fraternity focused on the development of our members through professional, philanthropic and social endeavors. We aim to promote an inclusive and welcoming environment that prepares our members for success as they pursue opportunities both at the University of Illinois and within the professional world.
As a first-semester freshman at the University of Illinois, I searched for an ambitious, tight-knit group of people that would continuously push me to become the better version of myself and provide me with unconditional support to achieve my goals. At Beta Alpha Psi, I’ve found this community of driven people that inspire me to grow both professionally and personally. Beta Alpha Psi has been a monumental part of my college experience and has become an integral part of who I am today. I can’t give back enough of the mentorship, guidance, and support I have received here but I am honored to have the opportunity to give back to our future members. Together I hope we will “Rise with BAP” and grow to reach our full potential.
Please reach out to me or anyone else on the executive board of Beta Alpha Psi with questions regarding our recruitment process or BAP in general. Thank you for your interest in the Alpha Chapter of Beta Alpha Psi and we can’t wait to meet you!
Best,
Sophie Hahn
