How to join
Joining a fraternity or sorority is an exciting and energy-filled process. It all starts through what is referred to as ‘fraternity and sorority recruitment. Recruitment is an exciting time of year when students may affiliate with one of the University's fraternities or sororities. Some of these organizations participate in a structured recruitment process during the first few weeks of the semester, while others offer recruitment throughout the year.
Recruitment dates
Recruitment dates generally fall between September 1 and 15 each year, but vary depending on which organization you choose to join.
Fall 2024 recruitment dates:
Interfraternity Council | September 1 to September 8
Multicultural Greek Council | September 3 to September 14
Panhellenic Council | September 8 to September 14
Events
Our fraternities and sororities will be tabling at various campus-sponsored events. You are encouraged to stop by and speak with our organizations. These events are designed for anyone interested in learning more about recruitment, each organization's values and whether joining is right for you.
