IFC Recruitment
Welcome!
To become a member of a Greek Letter organization, you must go through the process of recruitment. In short, recruitment is the process by which chapters select their new members. Before a student can commit to joining a fraternity, also known as “signing”, they must complete the IFC Recruitment registration. Once the online application and registration are complete, the student may sign with the fraternity or their choice who have extended a bid.
The majority of universities across the nation start this process at the beginning of the fall or spring semester. This is known as formal recruitment. What makes Oklahoma State unique is our use of the informal recruitment process. Informal recruitment allows our fraternities to recruit throughout the summer for their fall new member classes. We also practice year-long recruitment, so if you missed out on summer recruitment, there is no need to worry!

If you are interested in joining IFC there's several opportunities to get to know our nationally recognized chapters.

Spring Recruitment
At the conclusion of the fall semester, IFC will host an informational, preview day, and house tours for chapters that are participating in spring recruitment (typically 10 or more chapters).

Greek Discovery Day
Greek Discovery Day is an opportunity for students interested in Greek Life to learn about the different fraternities and sororities at Oklahoma State. On Greek Discovery Day students will gain valuable knowledge about our Greek system and will get a chance to tour houses in the Greek neighborhood while also meeting members of the various fraternities. GDD is a great way to meet people and start your recruitment! Registration will open in January.
If you are unable to attend Greek Discovery Day, you can get involved by contacting the IFC Director of Recruitment. He can answer any other questions you may have about the recruitment process and inform you of any other IFC sponsored events that would be beneficial to your recruitment experience. You can contact the IFC Director of Recruitment through email at ifc@okstate.edu.

Summer Recruitment
Throughout the summer, fraternities will contact potential new members to invite them to dinners and/or events. This allows fraternities and potential new members to get to know each other and find out which fraternity is the best fit for them. Keep in mind that every chapter has its own unique characteristics and benefits, and that the best chapter for you may not be the same as it is for a classmate or friend.
Fraternity Signing Day Events - June 22
It is not an expectation to attend a signing day event to become a member of a fraternity. Signing Day is the first day that potential new members can sign with a chapter. Potential new members will have all of the summer to sign with a chapter, Signing Day is simply the first day that you can sign. Each fraternity will have their own signing day event, which will vary by time and location. Please note if you are signed up for Camp Cowboy on this weekend, you will not be able to attend signing day.
Please remember that the Interfraternity Council Recruitment at Oklahoma State University is a substance-free process. Any group who violates this concept is suspect and recruits should very closely evaluate that organization's values and standards.
Registration is Open!
Recruitment registration is separate from Greek Discovery Day registration and includes a $75 fee.
