  2. ^ Chapter formed from Theta Tau Little Sisters.
  3. ^ Chapter formed from Omega Xi, established in 1989.
  4. ^ The Epsilon name was briefly used (Spring 1991 - Winter 1992) as the designation for a prospective chapter at the University of Minnesota. However, that group withdrew prior to installation to form its own sorority, Alpha Sigma Kappa. Thus the USC chapter is the first and only installed chapter of Alpha Omega Epsilon to use this name.
