List of Chi Phi chapters
A list of the active and inactive chapters of Chi Phi Fraternity.
Chapters
These are the chapters of Chi Phi Fraternity. Active chapters are indicated in bold. Inactive chapters are shown in italic. Dormant schools are also noted in italics, as are the predecessor branches of the fraternity which have merged into today's United Order.
As further explained in the main article, Chi Phi came from the following branches:
- The Chi Phi Society (1824–1825)
- the Princeton Order (1854–1867)
- the Southern Order (1858–1874)
- the Hobart Order, or Secret Order (1860–1867)
- the Northern Order (1867–1874) combining the Princeton and Hobart groups.
- and the United Order (1874) --the current Chi Phi Fraternity, after the merger of the Northern and Southern Orders.
These 'branch' names are referred to in the following table, by date of original establishment.[1]

It had been expelled from that order in 1868 "on account of the disgraceful conduct of some of its members." (Baird's Manual, 1st Ed), and joined the Northern Order of Chi Phi five years after leaving Alpha DiGamma. The chapter was re-established in 1911 by absorbing Delta Rho Tau which was established in 1910. It was reformed as a colony in 1973 and 2017.

- The oldest traditional fraternities (~junior societies) at Yale named their buildings with "Hall" nicknames, by which they wished to be known: Thus Chi Phi was York Hall. Similarly, Phi Gamma Delta was Vernon Hall which later became Myth and Sword. Sigma Delta Chi (local) was renamed the Cloister Club which soon became Book and Snake. Theta Xi's chapter was Franklin Hall, Phi Sigma Kappa adopted the name Sachem Hall, and Delta Psi adopted the name St. Anthony Hall which spread to their entire small but old national fraternity. Chi Delta Theta (local literary honorary) established the Manuscript Society, Psi Upsilon became the Fence Club, and finally, Delta Phi was known at Yale as St. Elmo's.
