How do I join?
Panhellenic primary recruitment is a very structured process occuring each August. After registering online in the summer, you’ll have the opportunity to attend several rounds of events to meet each organization. Throughout the week, by a process of mutual selection, both chapters and potential new members will narrow their choices. At UT Austin, a majority of women obtain membership through this process, however some chapters may also have opportunities to join outside of this time period and throughout the year.
