Information for Potential Members of UNO Fraternities & Sororities

Joining a Greek organization is one of the best ways to get involved at the University of New Orleans. Fraternity and sorority members hold leadership positions in New Student Orientation, Student Government, Student Activities Council, Progressive Black Student Union, UNO Ambassadors, professional organizations, the UNO Honors program, and a variety of honor societies.

Meet the Greeks

New and continuing students who are interested in joining a fraternity or sorority are encouraged to attend Meet the Greeks, February 4 at 7:00 p.m in the University Center.

Interfraternity Council (IFC) Recruitment

IFC coordinates recruitment each fall to introduce interested men to its fraternities (Kappa Sigma, Lambda Chi Alpha, and Theta Xi). IFC Recruitment gives potential members the opportunity to meet members of each fraternity. The fraternities decide which recruits they wish to invite into membership, and the recruits will choose which fraternity they wish to join.

For more information concerning the IFC recruitment, please contact the Office of Student Involvement and Leadership at sil@uno.edu or call 504-280-6349.

National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC) Fraternity and Sorority Membership Intake

NPHC fraternities and sororities (Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.; Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc.; Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.; Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc.; Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc.; Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc.; Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc.; and Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc.) bring in new members at different times of the year through a process called Membership Intake. Each NPHC group has different requirements for membership, and each conducts intake on its own schedule. More information about the NPHC groups and intake is available on the NPHC page.

Several of the NPHC fraternities and sororities will hold interest/invitational/informational meetings or other events for prospective members. Please contact the Office of Student Involvement and Leadership at sil@uno.edu or call 504-280-6349.

None of the NHPC organizations allows first-semester freshmen to join. However, NPHC will host an information session so these students can learn about the general requirements for membership, what they should (and should not!) do in order to express their interest in an NPHC fraternity or sorority, and much more. They will take questions from the audience as well. Attire is business casual.

Panhellenic Sorority Recruitment

The Panhellenic sororities (Alpha Xi Delta, Delta Zeta, Sigma Kappa, and Zeta Tau Alpha) bring in new members through a process called Membership Recruitment (formerly known as "Rush"). Panhellenic sponsors a Recruitment period each year, during which a series of organized events is held by each sorority.

Specific details about recruitment, including registration information is available on the Panhellenic Association Recruitment page.
