GRADE ZONES

There is currently a 2.5 GPA requirement to participate in Formal Recruitment at UAB implemented across the board for all fraternities and sororities, which includes both high school and any college credits earned. Once a student begins accumulating college credits (through transfer credits, dual credits, AP credits, etc.), the 2.5 minimum requirement will apply. Women who have below a 3.0 GPA are advised that they are at a greater risk to be released from the recruitment process. Because academics are a priority for our sororities at UAB, GPA often plays a role in a chapters decision to extend an invitation or to release a potential new member. Being released from recruitment or receiving a bid through the process is due to a wide variety of factors that are ultimately individual to each chapter. While exceptions made be made to these ranges in individual cases, they are rare. Any individual choosing to move forward with participating in recruitment will not be refunded based on release because of academic qualification.

Grade Zones:

Green Zone = Your options are not likely to be limited based on your GPA. (3.0+)

Yellow Zone = Your options are more likely to be limited by your GPA. (2.61-2.99)

Red Zone = Your options are very likely to be limited based on your GPA. (2.6 and below)
