How to Join – Fraternity and Sorority Life

RECRUITMENT 101

Each year, fraternities and sororities set aside time to meet students interested in joining a Greek letter organization. This is an opportunity for interested students to ask questions and learn about the different organizations on campus in order to make the most informed decision that is best for them. Recruitment gives students and organizations the chance to interact and to get to know one another. It is important to remember that both the fraternities and sororities and potential new members are recruiting each other—this is a mutual selection process!

Typically, most recruitment happens prior to the start of the semester, or during the first 2-3 weeks of each semester, depending on whether your participating in fraternity or sorority recruitment. Fall is the heaviest recruitment period. However, there are opportunities to join at any point during your undergraduate career based on when is best for you! Below you’ll find a brief overview of men’s fraternity recruitment and the women’s sorority recruitment process.

STILL UNSURE ABOUT JOINING?

That's totally okay!

Joining a fraternity or sorority is a life-long commitment. If you aren’t completely sure about joining, participating in the recruitment process doesn’t mean that you must join a fraternity or sorority. Think of it as a way to explore your options while trying to find a group that feels like home. While many students do join a fraternity or sorority in their first semester, that isn’t for everyone and you can definitely join at a later time. Many people do this as well!
