How to Join

博彩网址大全 Fraternity and Sorority Life is represented by four governing councils that each have a different process for members to join.

Panhellenic Council (PHC): Sororities

The Panhellenic Council holds Fall Primary Recruitment on Sept. 3-8 for those interested in joining their community. The Panhellenic Meet & Greet will be held 6-8 p.m., Aug. 27, in the Busch Student Center Saint Louis Room. If you are interested in learning more, please stop by and meet the members of the Panhellenic community. 

Interfraternity Council (IFC): Fraternities


The Interfraternity Council holds a formal recruitment at the beginning of each semester. Each chapter hosts events held both on and off campus to get to know potential new members. After getting to know potential members, chapters will invite people they are interested in having join to their final event and extend bids the following day.

IFC Fall Recruitment begins on September 1st and continues until September 19th. 

Multicultural Greek Council (MGC): Fraternities and Sororities

The Multicultural Greek Council are cultural and identity-based fraternities and sororities. MGC represents a quickly growing part of 博彩网址大全's Fraternity and Sorority Life community with expansion options for those interested. Currently, the Multicultural Greek Council represents South Asian interest groups, but welcomes new opportunities to support other 博彩网址大全 students' identities.

They conduct their membership selection or "membership intake process" independently and at different times. Chapters usually hold a formal interest meeting for prospective new members.

National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC): Fraternities and Sororities

The National Pan-Hellenic Council are historically Black fraternities and sororities, also known as the "Divine 9."  NPHC organizations were founded with ties to the traditions and values of Black culture. While their values celebrate and support the Black experience, our NPHC organizations are inclusive to members of all identities. 

Most NPHC organizations require a standing college GPA and some require sophomore standing in order to apply for the intake process. In the Fall Semester, NPHC 101 (a simple informational session about the NPHC Community and membership process) will be hosted 8-9:30 p.m., Aug. 27, in the Busch Student Center 352/353.
