Interfraternity Council Recruitment

How to Join an IFC Fraternity

At the beginning of the Fall and Spring semesters, the Interfraternity Council holds its Formal Recruitment process. IFC Recruitment gives potential members the opportunity to meet members of each fraternity. The IFC Recruitment process is one of mutual selection: the fraternities decide which recruits they wish to invite into membership, and the recruits choose which fraternity they wish to join. Each organization will host individual recruitment events in various locations on campus and throughout the metropolitan area. The formal process lasts one week and allows students the opportunity to explore Fraternity & Sorority Life without joining any particular fraternity. At the conclusion of recruitment, each fraternity extends “bids,” or offers of membership, to men that it wishes to be part of its organization.

Requirements to Join an IFC Fraternity

Each organization has its own requirements set by their (inter)national organization and Missouri State chapter. Please contact the individual chapter that you are interested in learning more information about regarding specific requirements and or guidelines.
