Greek Life

Fraternity/Sorority Academic Requirements

One of the founding principles of Greek-letter organizations is scholarship.  Academics are a top priority in the Greek Community, and members are able to access a wide variety of academic resources, such as study groups, to help maintain a level of scholastic excellence.  Most chapters appoint a scholarship chairperson whose sole responsibility is to help the members within the chapter meet academic standards.  In addition to the oversight provided by the scholarship chairperson, most national offices provide incentives for maintaining and exceeding chapter academic standards.

All chapters are required to set a minimum academic standard for membership.  Prospective new members must be willing to show proof of academic achievement in order to be considered for membership.  Below is a listing of the academic requirements for all chapters on campus.  Please take time to review the information and feel free to contact the Greek Life Advisor at (410) 704-3307, if you have any further questions.
