Interfraternity Council
The Interfraternity Council (IFC) experience revolves around character, leadership, responsibility, and philanthropy. As a collection of fraternities, IFC's vision is to create a unified community of fraternity men who are leaders in academics and service. Many of the chapters in the IFC have long histories, and each offers a unique experience. Some fraternities and traditions date back to 1883, when UT Austin first opened its doors.

Who is eligible?
Only The University of Texas at Austin students are eligible to join an IFC fraternity. Every fraternity has other minimum requirements that are set by their national organizations.
How do I join?
Each IFC fraternity follows its own recruitment schedule and establishes its own selection process. Some chapters begin recruitment in the summer, while others wait until the fall, or recruit each semester. Register for recruitment and find more information at texasifc.com.
What is IFC recruitment?
The IFC does not organize a formal recruitment for students interested in joining a fraternity. Instead, chapters set their own timelines for recruitment. Interested students are encouraged to register on IFC’s Chapter Builder account by clicking “Recruitment” on texasifc.com, as that information will be shared with all recruiting chapters. Additionally, you may also reach out to a chapter’s recruitment officers to inquire about timelines directly.
IFC Events
Movember —Grow a mustache, raise money, and spread awareness about men's health issues like prostate and testicular cancer. Movember events throughout November include speaker series, fundraising events, and social media contests.
B+ Foundation —IFC is proud to collaborate with the B+ Foundation, supporting families of children with cancer and critical, cutting-edge childhood cancer research.
