Steps to Join an IFC chapter

Recruitment takes place each Fall and Spring semester, typically around the 2nd or 3rd week of classes, and lasts no more than 10 days total.

Step 1: Sign up for Recruitment at and pay the non-refundable registration fee.

Step 2: Day 1 - Attend Orientation and Open House. There will be a presentation from the IFC Executive Board (Orientation) and afterwards will be an opportunity for a rotational meet and greet with each chapter (Open House).

Step 3: Day 2+ - Potential New Members (PNMs) can attend any chapter Open Events they wish. Open Events are accessible to anyone going through recruitment, without having to RSVP or receive an invitation; its an opportunity to explore all of the fraternities offered, get to know them more, and ask questions.

Step 4: Last Day - Potential New Members (PNMs) may be extended an invitation to attend chapters' Closed Events. Closed Events are invite-only in which the PNMs explore the chapter more deeply. Some chapters may have Alumni in attendance, or have formal interviews, and is usually a more formal/business casual attire. If you need assistant in formal/business attire, please visit the website. 

Step 5: Bid Day - On the final day of recruitment, Potential New Members (PNMs) must attend Bid Selection and the optional Bid Rally event. PNMs may be extended one (1) or more membership invitation/bid to any of the fraternities within IFC. After meeting with IFC during Bid Selection to confirm acceptance of membership/bid, PNMs will now become New Members of the chapter. New Members can then attend an optional Bid Rally in the evening to celebrate and congratulate everyone on joining the IFC community.

Please note: Membership invitations/bids are not gaurenteed. Receiving a bid is contingent upon multiple factors and is up to the discretion of the chapter, which may include, but not limited to: grades, conversations taking place between PNMs and chapter's, and whether the PNM matches a fraternity's membership criteria.

Next Steps: New Members of the chapter begin and finish the education process. Chapters all have different lengths in the New Member Education (NME) process - from 72 hours to 8 weeks.

CONDUCT HISTORY

In the spirit of transparency and accountability, the report found below outlines the conduct history of fraternities and sororities overseen by the Center for Student Involvement at the 新澳门六合彩内幕信息 throughout the last three years:

Fraternity and Sorority Life Conduct History

 

unrecognized chapters/groups

The Student Organization Handbook and the USF Student Code of Conduct defines a student organization as a group of currently enrolled 新澳门六合彩内幕信息 students who unite to promote a common interest, who are recognized by the university as a registered student organization. 新澳门六合彩内幕信息requires all fraternities and sororities to be affiliated with a governing council under the umbrella of Fraternity and Sorority Life within the Center for Student Involvement as well as requiring a larger, inter/nationally-based organization who provides additional supervision, guidance, and programming on a wide variety of topics.

Please note: students affiliating with an unregistered student organization, including fraternities and sororities not recognized by Fraternity and Sorority Life/USF, may be held individually responsible for actions stemming from membership in the organization through the 新澳门六合彩内幕信息Student Code of Conduct. Students who join organizations who have no affiliation with the University and/or inter/national organization(s) are not provided liability insurance or direct advisor support and are more likely to fall victim to academic, judicial, legal, or other problems while involved.

Unauthorized expansion/extension activities, such as "campus crashing", "ghost lines," recruiting or soliciting membership, pre-initiation activities, pledging, educating and/or initiating 新澳门六合彩内幕信息students without having approved recognition through Fraternity and Sorority Life will not be allowed. Some organizations may portray themselves as registered student organizations. Additionally, any potential chapter (otherwise known as an entity) and/or chapter operating at 新澳门六合彩内幕信息must be working toward or have a charter which designates itself as a chapter at USF. City-wide/metro chapters are not permitted at USF.

Please note that the following fraternities and sororities are not considered registered student organizations at this time and have no current affiliation with USF:

  • Beta Chi Theta
  • Chi Phi
  • Chi Phi Sigma
  • Delta Chi
  • Lambda Chi Alpha
  • Sigma Sigma Rho
  • SigEx
  • Verdandi
