New Member Recruitment

New Member Recruitment begins in B Term for both men and women. WPI and the Greek community support this deferred Recruitment period because it gives new students time to settle in to their classes and make friends within their residence hall community before exploring Greek life. New Member Recruitment is a period of mutual selection. Not only do Greek organizations select new members, but also the prospective members select the chapter they wish to join.

Students who participate in New Member Recruitment are under no obligation to join. Opportunities for membership are open to all new students who are academically eligible. Academic eligibility is defined by earning 2/3 credits for classes in A Term for all new students. Students who are taking semester long courses must contact the Greek Advisor to obtain an academically eligible status prior to New Member Recruitment. Transfer and upper class students interested in recruitment must have the equivalent of 2/3 credits per term and must not be on academic warning.
