Recruitment

The Interfraternity Council promotes year-round recruitment, however most of the recruitment at UNA takes place in the summer and fall. IFC recruitment is informal, meaning each chapter holds their own events (we recommend that you contact the chapter(s) that you're interested in to learn more about their recruitment events). If you are interested in participating in recruitment, please fill out this form: https://una.edu/fsl/FSL-Forms/fsl-interest-form.html

Alcohol Free Recruitment and New Member Activities

Fraternities will observe a dry recruitment practice, as well as new member activities. No buying for or supplying alcohol to interested students is allowed. Active brothers will not use personal or chapter funds for this purpose. Any event with the purpose and intention of recruiting potential new members is classified as a recruitment event, which must remain alcohol free. Chapters not following this policy will be called to a judicial hearing with IFC, and may additionally be brought through the UNA Student Conduct process.
