Advice for IFC Recruitment

  • You must narrow your choices and ultimately decide which group you wish to join. The Greek organization that is best for your friends or family may not be the best one for you.

  • Think about why you want to join a Greek organization. Are these qualities present in the groups that you are considering?

  • Find the organization in which you feel most comfortable. Why do you feel comfortable in that particular group?

  • Take a look around you. The men and women that you are standing with could be your brothers or sisters. What qualities do you share with these people? Do you feel comfortable with them?

  • Ask questions! Get to know everything you can about each organization.

  • Most importantly, be yourself! There are many diverse organizations that want to know you.

Questions to Ask a Chapter Member

  • Why should I join? What aspects of Greek Life encouraged you to join?
  • What are the financial obligations of a new member? Are there additional costs that members are required to pay other than the fees listed?
  • How long is the new member program and how much time do I need to devote to it?
  • What other campus organizations have you had an opportunity to participate in because of your Greek experience?
  • How does Greek Life promote scholarship?
  • What is a philanthropy? What kinds of things do you do?
  • What types of activities are planned with other Greek organizations?
