Membership Expectations

Financial Expectations

Each chapter has a different cost and cost vary on membership status. You can find information on chapter membership costs here: Financial Transparency. In addition to membership fees, each chapter has a residency requirement: typically, members are expected to live on the chapter floor their Sophomore year.

Academic Expectations

As required by the National Panhellenic Conference, there is no GPA requirement to participate in primary recruitment at the University of North Alabama. However, the four sororities have individual requirements to extend a membership invitation:

Alpha Delta Pi: 3.0 minimum GPA
Alpha Gamma Delta: 2.5 minimum GPA
Phi Mu: 2.8 minimum GPA
Zeta Tau Alpha: 3.0 minimum GPA

Women who have below a 3.00 GPA are advised that they are at a greater risk to be released from the primary recruitment process due to their academics. With the amount of women who participate in the formal recruitment process, GPA tends to be a characteristic all groups strongly consider, especially after the first round of primary recruitment. Being released from primary recruitment or receiving a membership invitation through the primary recruitment process is due to a wide variety of factors that are ultimately up to the sororities. GPA is only one of those factors, but there is much weight placed on GPA.

To help students understand how their GPA may affect their formal recruitment experience, College Panhellenic created Grade Zones to show how academics may factor in formal recruitment. GPA Zones:

Green Zone = Your options are not likely limited based on your GPA. (3.0 + )
Yellow Zone = Your options are more likely to be limited by your GPA. (2.8 – 2.99)
Red Zone = Your options are very likely to be limited based on GPA. (2.79 and below)

Community Service Expectations

Community service and philanthropy are important to the Panhellenic Community. Each organization has expectations for members to meet a minimum number of service hours each semester:

Alpha Delta Pi: All Members - 10 outside hours/semester, 4 inside hours/semester
Alpha Gamma Delta: Active Members - 7 hours/semester
Phi Mu: New Members - 5 hours/semester as a New Member, 10 hours/semester as an Active Member
Zeta Tau Alpha: All Members - 5 hours/semester as a New Member, 10 hours/semester as an Active Member

Housing Expectations

Please know that sorority chapters have a one year live on requirement and at some point in your academic career you will be required to move onto the sorority floor-NO EXCEPTIONS. UNA also has a one year live on campus requirement. Ideally, freshmen year, you would live in the residence halls and sophomore year you would move onto the sorority floor. Please understand this is NOT optional; it is a requirement.

New Member Course Expectation:

All fraternity and sorority new members are required to take a not-for-credit course their first semester of membership. The course is taught by the fraternity and sorority life staff and begins in October (at the start of the second 8-weeks of classes). New members will receive information about this course later in the fall. All new members are required to pass the FSL New Member course with a 60%.

Academic Record Release

I understand that to apply for recruitment, I must be a regularly enrolled, full-time student in good standing with the University of North Alabama. I authorize the University of North Alabama Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life and Panhellenic Council to verify my academic eligibility by checking my grades and releasing my grade information and transcript to the chapters. If I should accept a bid to membership in a sorority, I also give UNA Student Engagement permission to check my grades to be released to my chapter, advisor, and National Headquarters for scholarship purposes.

Information Disclosure

I agree to the terms listed above and allow my registration information to be made available to the University of North Alabama Panhellenic Chapters as part of the recruitment process.
