Virtual Recruitment

Panhellenic Primary sorority recruitment for Fall 2021 will be a virtually structured process. Though the Fall 2021 semester will be hybrid (events and programs will both be online and in-person), all events for Primary Recruitment will take place via Zoom during the weekend of September 10-13, 2021. Should this change, this will be formally communicated with all registered participants by the Panhellenic Council. If you are interested in an opportunity to join one of the six Panhellenic organizations during the Fall 2021 semester, then you must complete this registration form.

This form opens on Thursday, July 1, 2021 at 12:00 PM and will close on September 9, 2021 at 12:00 PM.

Voluntary Authorization for Education Record Disclosure

Enrollment Eligibility Requirements

I understand that to participate in primary recruitment I must currently be enrolled in 6 units of classes as an undergraduate student at San Jose State University (SJSU). Open University does not meet this requirement.

GPA Eligibility Requirements:

If I am a matriculated (degree-seeking) student, I must have an institution/SJSU GPA of at least 2.60 on a 4.0 scale.
If I am a first-time frosh student or first semester transfer student, I do not currently have an institution/SJSU GPA and therefore am eligible to participate in Panhellenic Formal Recruitment this Fall semester.
Note: Individual chapters may uphold higher unit enrollment or GPA standards.

University policy prohibits the disclosure of personally identifiable information from the education records of students without their written consent. By clicking below, I authorize the disclosure of of my high school, other college, and SJSU cumulative and semester GPA, the contents of this application, and the outcome of my participation in recruitment to Chapter Recruitment Chairs, Chapter Presidents, Chapter Advisors, National Officers, and the Primary Panhellenic Advisor. I understand the purpose of such disclosure is for the verification of minimum academic standards and for the maintenance of recruitment records. This authorization is in effect during the period of my new member period and membership in any sorority I may choose to join.

Letters of Recommendation

SJSU Panhellenic does not require or collect letters of recommendation. If you do have letters, they should be mailed directly to the relevant chapter(s).

Recruitment Fees

There is no fee to register for recruitment.
All organization will disclose financial transparency with you during recruitment.

Important Things For Potential New Members (PNMs) to Know

Recruitment is an alcohol- and drug-free process.
No chapter or chapter member/alumna may promise a bid or membership to a potential new member during recruitment.
During the recruitment period, no PNM may visit a chapter house under any circumstances.
If you have questions about recruitment or specific chapters please contact anyone on the Panhellenic Council or Recruitment Counselors. Contact between PNMs and active chapter members is restricted to events during the recruitment weekend.
I understand that I should plan my schedule to attend all recruitment events. Questions or concerns can be brought up to the Panhellenic Council.
I understand that there are financial obligations of membership in a sorority. It will vary from chapter to chapter.
