In order to join a Greek organization, a potential member will participate in Recruitment, a semester-long orientation process where potential members learn more about the different organizations and meet their members. Sororities participate in deferred recruitment, which means that membership invitations for first-year students are not extended until the beginning of second semester. There will be pre-recruitment events throughout the first semester and Formal Recruitment events beginning the Friday before second semester begins. For men, the recruitment process begins first semester. It involves three different events and concludes with men’s pick-up.

In order to participate in Recruitment, women must have at least a 2.25 GPA at the conclusion of fall semester, and men must have a 2.00 GPA. Individual chapters, however, may have higher requirement
