Recruitment is the official process to join a fraternity or sorority affiliated with the
Panhellenic Council (PHC) or the
Interfraternity Council (IFC). It is a time for students to ask questions including what are the financial obligations, time commitments and membership requirements.
Recruitment is a two-way process when fraternities and sororities are looking at you, and you are looking at the fraternities and sororities. You are deciding which organization most interests you, which has the members you relate to the most and where you feel the most comfortable. At the same time, members of the chapter are meeting you and others going through recruitment. Chapters are looking at individuals who can contribute to their membership in terms of grades, activities, talents and interests.
Recruitment is year-round, but the formal recruitment process for PHC is in the fall, which you must register for to participate in the process on our website. IFC has two formalized processes one in fall and the other in spring, there is no registration required. If you are in band, chearleading, athletics or other activities and you have commitments that overlap with recruitment inform the chapter or council that you will be participating in both. We will work with you during the week to ensure that you may attend as many recruitment events as possible.
If you participate in recruitment their is no commitment to joining. Recruitment is a time to see what Greek life can offer you.
