When a student chooses to join a fraternity or sorority, they will join a chapter. Each chapter is governed by one council. At 亚色影库 there are three councils, each with a unique recruitment process. All recruitment is deferred, which means that students may participate in the recruitment process only when they meet the following criteria:
- They are enrolled as full-time undergraduate students.
- They earn and maintain a minimum 2.50 cumulative grade-point average. Some chapters may follow a higher cumulative grade-point average requirement.
- They have successfully earned a minimum of 12 credit hours at 亚色影库 or transferred to 亚色影库 with a minimum of 12 credit hours from another college or university. Credits accumulated during high school do not count toward this minimum.
