Interfraternity Council (IFC)

 

Fall Primary Recruitment

IFC Formal Recruitment is the primary way Potential New Members, or PNMs, join the IFC community each year. This process is coordinated by IFC’s Recruitment Team along with the Center for Fraternity and Sorority Life staff. This week-long Formal Recruitment process is structured around a series of events called recruitment rounds. Each recruitment round is designed to provide PNMs the opportunity to interact with our IFC chapters in a formal setting. After visiting each chapter, PNMs and IFC chapters will participate in a mutual selection process to narrow down their options. During the last recruitment round, PNMs will have the opportunity to receive a membership invitation from any number of our IFC chapters and will have the opportunity to accept membership on the last day of recruitment. Throughout this process, each PNM will have a recruitment counselor, or Rho Chi, that will guide, mentor, and lead them through the Formal Recruitment process.

The 2024 Formal Recruitment experience will take place from August 16th - 24th
Registration is REQUIRED to participate and early registration is highly encouraged. Registration is $10.00 and will open on April 17th!

Costs to Join

Fraternities/Sororities have been self-sufficient since their inception. Members of these groups pay their own way through dues, membership fees and one-time new member or initiation fees. Cost of membership in a Greek-lettered organization varies, depending on the organization and housing options. However, the cost of living in a fraternity or sorority house is generally comparable to living on campus. Students can expect a financial obligation of $450-$900 to join one of these chapters.
