What we believe Scholarship
Troy University sororities place high emphasis on scholarship. Programs such as academic mentoring, tutoring services, time management seminars, proctored study halls, and information on free campus resources encourage our members to strive to achieve their academic goals. Our goal is for our women to walk across the graduation stage and receive their diploma from the Chancellor. Fall 2020 the all sorority GPA was a 3.29 and the all undergraduate women’s GPA was a 3.08.
Service
Sorority members serve the Troy community in endless ways. Greeks are the first to ring the bells for the Salvation Army each year. You can find our women in the nursing homes, local schools, food banks and churches. We also are the first to respond when there has been a natural disaster. We also serve our national philanthropies by raising money.
Leadership
We believe developing ethical leaders for life. First our women learn the obligations of being a good member of an organization. When elected to an officer position they receive intense training and learn to lead their peers. Every sorority encourages their members to belong to at least one other campus organization and they become leaders in those. Seven women each year are selected to serve on the Panhellenic Council and lead over 1,000 sorority women.
Sisterhood
Everyone needs a cheerleader, a support group or someone to mentor them. Family, mom and dad are our first cheerleaders. Leaving home, it is important to find a circle of people who will encourage you to strive to be your best. Sororities are the best transition to college. To offer new friends who will be there for you enjoying lifelong bonds and invaluable experiences that will last long after your collegiate years are over. We call that sisterhood.
Panhellenic Creed
We, as undergraduate members of women’s fraternities, stand for good scholarship, for guarding of good health, for maintenance of fine standards, and for serving, to the best of our ability, our college community. Cooperation for furthering fraternity life, in harmony with its best possibilities, is the ideal that shall guide our fraternity activities. We, as fraternity women, stand for service through the development of character inspired by the close contact and deep friendships of individual fraternity and Panhellenic life. The opportunity for wide and human contact, through mutual respect and helpfulness is the tenet by which we strive to live.

Registration Tips •
• •
Get Prepared! When you go to troy.edu/sororityrecruitment you will see a drop down box called How do I register. Carefully read over the instructions on this page before you open the recruitment application. This will make the process quick and easy! Register as soon as you decide. The earlier you register the longer the sororities have to obtain a recommendation for you. On the registration form it will ask for your activities prior to going through recruitment. This is the time to brag about yourself. Think of the organizations you have belonged to, the offices you held, church, community and volunteer activities and be certain to list them.
• •
The online registration form is best used in Chrome and Firefox. If you have any problems registering reach out to greeklife@troy.edu. We are here to help you!
Eligibility To Recruit High School graduates must have a 2.2 overall average (on a 4.0 scale) & be accepted to Troy University. Upperclassmen at TROY must have a 2.2 overall average Transfer students must have a 2.2 overall average based on 12 hours; if a transfer student has fewer than 12 hours, her eligibility will be based on her high school grade point average. This eligibility policy for recruitment is designed to help new students become academically oriented at the University, before becoming involved in the sorority aspect of campus life. The Panhellenic Council’s membership recruitment eligibility policy is a minimum requirement. Each sorority sets their own academic standards for joining. The sorority women will carefully evaluate the grades and high school activities of each individual going through recruitment when making membership decisions.
HOUSING DURING
Recruitment On-Campus Housing
Meals
If you are scheduled to live in a residence hall this year, you will be living in your assigned residence hall room during recruitment. Residence hall check in for those participating in sorority recruitment will be on Saturday, July 31 from 8 am to 5 pm and Sunday, August 1 from 8 am to 5 pm. When you arrive, check in will take place at your assigned residence hall. The resident assistant staff will be in the lobby area of each dorm to help check you in. Once you check in, you will receive your key and be able to move into your residence hall room. Housing will expect you to check in on Saturday, July 31 or Sunday, August 1 if you are living on campus. Please note that the first two days of sorority recruitment is divided up into two days, Monday, August 2 and Tuesday, August 3 Half of the women will go to events on one of these two days and the other half will have a free day to set up their residence hall room, run errands, etc. On Sunday, August 1, we will notify you whether you will be going through recruitment on August 2 or 3.
The university meal ticket begins on Saturday, August 7 the last day of sorority recruitment. The Dining Hall will be open for breakfast, lunch and dinner during recruitment week and you can eat there on your own. The average a meal usually costs $12.00. Trojan Dining offers a special “meal ticket” for the women going through recruitment. You can purchase 6 meals for $48.00 plus tax for recruitment week at https://shop-troydining.sodexomyway.com/ dining-events. This is optional. If you purchase a ticket, please do so under your own name, not under a parent name. This will help us identify who the tickets are for. We also want you to know that most likely each day of recruitment you will be eating one meal off campus with your recruitment group. Everyone usually carpools to these meals. The cost of those meals will be on your own.
Off-Campus Housing If you will not be living in university housing this fall, you must make your own arrangements for housing off campus during membership recruitment week. Often, apartment complexes will not let them move in early. If that is your case, we recommend staying at a hotel or with a friend.
SORORITY RECRUITMENT
Check in & Orient ion We will have sorority check in on Sunday, August 1 in Smith Hall, Claudia Crosby Theater from 2:30 to 3 pm. You will check in and receive your name tag and T-shirt for Philanthropy Day. We will have a large group orientation meeting in the Claudia Crosby Theater from 3 to 5 pm. After the large group meeting, you will break into small groups and meet with your Pi Chi’s. In the small group, you will get to know everyone in your group and go over the recruitment schedule. Dress for orientation is T-shirts and shorts. We know that many of you will move into residence hall rooms and apartments on Saturday, July 31. Our Pi Chi’s will also arrive on July 31. They will be going to many of the churches in our area on Sunday, August 1. If you are here and want to go to church with our Pi Chi’s and other recruits, we will email a schedule out on Friday, July 30. We will have you meet Pi Chi’s at the Trojan center 1st floor food court lobby and go to church from there.
PHILANTHROPY & SERVICE This year we have selected to support the Pike County Animal Shelter here in Troy, AL. This company houses many animals who are in search of loving homes due to their families not being able to keep them well or safe! While living in the shelter, animals are in need of many things throughout their time whether it be food, treats, toys, or even cleaning supplies to ensure they are safe and well at all times. The capacity of animals at the Pike County Shelter is approximately 75, so it is important that they have enough supplies to keep their facility running and their animals in proper health! When you come to recruitment check-in at Claudia Crosby, we ask that each of you bring in an item or two for the Pike County Animal Shelter. The items that are needed are bleach, dawn dish soap, dog food (any brand is accepted except for Ole Roy, Kibbles n Bits, and Gravy Train) the staff love to have plenty of Purina chicken and rice flavored food on hand, Milkbone dog treats, wet or dry puppy food, collars (any size), and/or dog leads (they are types of leashes they prefer to use). With these donations, we will be able to provide the animal shelter with many weeks of service to these animals that are in search of their forever homes! We are so thrilled to be giving to such an important organization in our community and we cannot wait for you all to be a-part of this years’ service project! The staff at the shelter are so thankful for us considering them for our philanthropy and we are so excited to give them items that will make a tremendous difference!

Tips for Recruitment Hi, I am Lauren Thomas, your Head Pi Chi. I am so blessed to have been chosen for this position. It has been an honor to train the chosen Pi Chi’s that are helping you during recruitment. During recruitment, you will be placed in a Pi Chi group. You will have daily meetings, go eat together, and hang out with other members of your group. Girls in your group will become some of your first Troy friends. It is important to know that your Pi Chi will not be associated with her sorority or be biased towards her sorority throughout recruitment week. You may freely ask your Pi Chi questions about the recruitment process. We are so excited to meet you!
Bree Davis; President “It is so important to be your authentic self! I know trusting the process, but God has a plan! P.S. wear comfortable shoes!”
Ali Robinson; Vice President of Internal Recruitment
Madison Bates; Vice President of External Recruitment
“Go into recruitment with an open mind! If you’re yourself, you will end up where you are meant to be! Trust the process!”
“This is a super memorable week, so put yourself out there and let your true personality shine! Everything else will work out as long as you stay true to yourself and have fun!”
Madison Bailey; Vice President of Administration and Finance
Bailey Myers; Vice President of Public Relations
Lindsay McCain; Vice President of Service and Greek Affairs
Always follow your heart!! You will make the right decision in the end! The best advice is to focus on yourself and find the place that aligns with your values and what you believe! Every sorority is great, and you will find your home!
Be yourself and ask questions! Also, have an open mind when going in, and trust in what you believe. I know it will probably get tough but be the star that you are and keep on shining!!
I believe everyone should start recruitment with a positive and open mind! Staying optimistic about every house you walk into. You will have a strong, personal opinion about each house, so you’ll know which one is more “you”!
Your First Year
If you join a sorority, you will quickly find out that they are involved in all parts of campus life. You will find your sorority will be involved in attending many campus events together. For instance if there is a pep rally – everyone will go! Your first year will be full of new and exciting events introducing you to collegiate life. Below are some things you can expect during your first year of membership in a Panhellenic chapter.
Study Hall Hours Some chapters require a certain number of study hall hours to be completed during the week. Sororities also implement a number of educational programs to assist new members in the academic transition into college. Sororities will also encourage you to attend career fairs to get the experience of meeting potential employers.
New Member Meetings and Education As a new member, you will be required to attend weekly new member meetings in addition to weekly chapter meetings. The goals of these meetings is to teach new members the values, traditions, and rituals of the organization. You will also find your sorority hosting educational programs. Some topics that may be presented are on leadership, mental health, drugs, alcohol, sexual assault, resume building, budgeting and many more topics.
Philanthropic Work Each Greek chapter enjoys serving its local and national philanthropy and will host events each semester to raise awareness and donations for the cause. New members are invited to attend these events as a way to socialize within the community while supporting a worthy cause.
Recruitment Events In the Spring, chapters host recruitment workshops to help their new members prepare for next year’s Formal Recruitment process. These workshops help you gain experience in meeting and interviewing others, great preparation for the work world.
Active Participation As a new member, you will be encouraged to participate in campus and Greek-wide events such Welcome Week, Homecoming, Pep Rallies, on campus speakers, plays, choral events, and Honors Convocation, these events are not only fun, but provide an opportunity to meet and work with students from across campus. Sororities will also encourage you to be an active member in another campus organization.
Financial Information Financial requirements are an important consideration for students participating in sorority recruitment, so it is important to be as informed as possible with the costs associated with the sorority experience. If you accept an invitation to join a chapter, you will enter into a financial agreement for membership dues and fees during your collegiate years. Dues and fees vary from chapter to chapter and year to year. It is important to note sorority costs may be more expensive during your first year in the organization due to one-time fees and expenses. It is also important to note that additional costs may arise during the year for items such as pictures, t-shirts, or other miscellaneous items.
FIRST YEAR ONE TIME MEMBERSHIP FEES Average: $660 Range: $455 to $930 Please note the range difference is because in the one time fees is included the membership pin/badge. Each sorority has a variety of pin/badges that vary in cost that you can select from.
SEMESTER DUES Average: $600 Range: $520 to $697
SORORITY LIVING Sorority members have the opportunity to live in sorority houses. You might wonder as a new member will you get to move into a house. Typically, in fall semester less than 10 new members move into the houses. It will depend on if the sorority you join has an open space. If you live in a residence hall, and your sorority has an open space, you can move on over to the sorority house. Typically, sorority members do not move into the chapter facility until their sophomore, junior, or senior years. Upperclassmen may have an obligation to live in the chapter house; however, each chapter regulates membership living in house. The cost of rent for the houses is comparable to the cost of living in Shackelford or Cowart Hall. We have a wonderful video on our sorority website called Scenes from Sorority Hill, please check it out.
Letters of Recommendation A sorority letter of recommendation is a practice used by some of our sororities to provide an opportunity for potential new members to be introduced to a sorority. It highlights pieces of your accomplishments and experiences that show you will be an engaged member of a sorority and uphold the values and expectations of membership. Unfortunately, sometimes women and their caregivers go to great lengths to procure letters of recommendation under the false assumption recommendations are mandatory for participation in recruitment. Sorority letters of recommendation are not required for participation in the recruitment process. There is a great deal of false information about recommendations that is perpetuated by rumors. Do not listen to rumors. We will have information on our recruitment website on each organization’s preferences on letters of recommendation by June 1. troy.edu/sororityregistration
Recruitment Q&A WHAT IS A BID? A bid is an offer to a Potential New Member to join a sorority. At the conclusion of the last preferential event, PNMs must go to a designated area to sign their preference card. After the preference card is signed and turned in, it is a binding agreement and may not be changed. If a PNM receives a bid from one of her preference sororities and decides against joining, she is ineligible to join another sorority for a calendar year. Only the written bids distributed by the NPC are official. Any suggestion of a bid from a sorority member is to be ignored, as no one individual member may speak for her entire sorority.
Helpful Hint Pre-address envelopes and attach your resume and a picture of yourself to give to the alumna!
CAN I GO HOME RIGHT AFTER RECRUITMENT? You may not want to plan on going home before classes start. Most sororities have formal pledging or other events immediately after recruitment.
WHAT TO BRING TO PARTIES? Only carry a minimum amount of items with you to parties (keys, phone, ID and make-up)
Social Media Etiquette We are very sensitive to our recruits (you!) being contacted by sorority women over the summer. We know that social media is most everyone’s favorite way to communicate and share information. We ask our sorority women to be respectful and to have normal social media over the summer with our recruits. We ask you to direct any questions that you may have to our Panhellenic Instagram as our Panhellenic officers have the most knowledge about what is happening with sorority recruitment. We want you to follow all our sororities social media. We want you to know that if you have been friends with one of our sorority members before signing up for recruitment such as having been high school friends, you can and should continue those contacts and friendships, and may use social media and continue normal activities with them. It is also fine for those sorority women you might meet over the summer to add you to their social media and for you to add them. Where we consider it unethical is for complete strangers to begin following, commenting on your social media and we discourage that. We also consider unethical for a sorority woman to encourage you to pledge her sorority. Our sorority women, while certainly can show their love of their sorority, should be encouraging you to Go Greek! Our goal is for normal social media to happen and to discourage sorority women who do not know you to start commenting/liking your social media. The social media and Panhellenic guidelines are set in place for the recruits to go through the recruitment process with an open mind. We want you all to view our sororities equally and to have a fair chance with all sororities. Sorority recruitment week is a time for you to meet and get to know all our sororities and we do not want you to prejudge our groups because of social media.
