Recruitment

You must register in order to participate in Formal Recruitment. You may fill our and print the Panhellenic Formal Recruitment Registration Form (requires Acrobat Reader). The Panhellenic Council encourages you to register as early as possible. This will make it easier for us to process your application quickly. Registration requires a $30 fee, which is used primarily to offset the cost of renting the University Center during overtime hours for Formal Recruitment events for Potential New Members (that's you!). The deadline to register is Monday, October 3rd, but we encourage you to register as soon as possible.

Frequently Asked Questions?

What is formal recruitment?
A designated recruitment period during which a series of organized social activities are held by each sorority; recruitment is governed by Panhellenic.

What is Panhellenic?
Panhellenic is the governing board of sororities at CSUSB who belong to the National Panhellenic Conference (NPC); which is a national organization that 26 national sororities have membership. NPC acts as a 26-member Congress. It is the governing body for NPC sororities. Panhellenic unites every sorority woman regardless of individual affiliation. Panhellenic was designed to strengthen their values and establish common goals.

What is quota?
Quota will be determined by the number of women accepting at least one invitation to the second night of invitational parties during formal recruitment, divided by the number of Panhellenic Council member sororities. Open House is not an invitational party. However, quota may be adjusted by the Greek advisor on bid matching night should the original number be disproportionate to the number of women participating in recruitment.

What is a legacy?
A daughter, sister or granddaughter of an initiated member of a sorority.

What is a Sigma Rho Chi (recruitment counselor)?
Each Sigma Rho Chi is a Greek woman at CSUSB who has chosen to disaffiliate with her chapter in order to better advise and assist women who are interested in Greek Life. Every woman who registers for recruitment is assigned a Rho Chi to answer any questions you might have during Recruitment Week. In order to respect the job of the Sigma Rho Chi, please do not ask her what chapter she is a member of, and if you happen to know, please honor the program and do not share that information with others.
