ABOUT PRIMARY RECRUITMENT

 

At the University of Houston, Panhellenic Primary Recruitment occurs early in the Fall semester each year. During recruitment, you will get the chance to meet with sisters from every chapter. Through four rounds and a process of mutual selection, you will find a house that best suits you. We encourage women to keep an open mind during this process as you meet a community of Panhellenic women who are excited to get to know you. Joining a sorority at the University of Houston is an exciting journey of personal growth, lifelong connections, and building community. Be your authentic self and choose a sisterhood that aligns with your values and will motivate you to be the best version of yourself.

 

ELIGIBILITY 

To be eligible for Panhellenic Primary Recruitment, a woman must be a student at the University of Houston. The University of Houston and Houston Panhellenic Council wish to highlight the importance of academics. HPC encourages all women to apply for recruitment and does not require a minimum GPA. However, HPC encourages all potential new members to be fully informed about the GPA and enrollment membership standards set by individual chapters. While there is no GPA or credit-hour enrollment requirement to register, each chapter has its own recruitment requirements, which can be found on each chapter's page.

FINANCES

 

It is also important for each PNM to be aware of the financial obligations of sorority membership prior to registering for recruitment. Not every chapter offers scholarships, or payment plans to new members, so it is encouraged to be educated on each chapter's total costs and offerings, which can also be found here.

REGRISTRATION DETAILS:

 

Online registration began May 1st.

 

You will be asked to upload a recent photo of yourself and a resume in addition to your application. We do not need you to upload or mail in your transcripts because we will be using the transcript that the University of Houston has on file as of August 1st. Please note we do not accept paper applications.

 

At the end of the application, you will also be asked to pay a registration fee as you submit your registration form.

APPLICATION FEE:

The Recruitment Registration Fee, paid to the Houston Panhellenic Council, is used to assist in the management, promotion, and coordination of this leadership development experience for college women. It covers the cost of your provided shirt and meal as well.

Registration Fee: $80
