Membership intake for United Greek Council chapters is conducted once per semester during the fall and/or spring semester for each organization. Individual chapters will determine if they will have membership intake in conjunction with their state, regional, or national organization. A Go Greek Information Night will be hosted by these chapters to learn more information.
All UGC chapters follow the university’s recruitment policy:
Policy on Recruitment – Eligibility for participating in the recruitment or membership intake process is limited to students in good standing.
