Fraternities

Joining a fraternal organization offers many benefits, from academic encouragement and support, lifelong friendships, numerous leadership possibilities and social activities, to philanthropic and service opportunities. Members are also introduced to alumni of their organizations from all over the world.

Informal Recruitment Information

Chapters continually recruit throughout the fall and spring semesters. Submit your the form below to provide your contact and involvement information to all chapter recruitment chairmen. If you are interested in specific chapters, consider reaching out to their recruitment chairmen through email or text. From there, you may be asked to visit with chapter members, attend a fall recruitment event, or have dinner with the men. All fraternity chapter recruitment is required to be alcohol-free. If you have questions about your recruitment experience or what your next step should be, contact the Office of Student Involvement at involvement@uni.edu.

If you have recently received a bid from one of the UNI fraternities, congratulations! Throughout this fall and spring, recruitment chairmen will be extending invitations to join their fraternity. This invitation is often called a bid and may be verbally extended or in a written communication (email, letter, etc.). The chapter will provide a bid card with your name on it, ensuring your spot in their chapter for the upcoming semester. This is what binds you to their chapter and is an official document. Chapters with facilities may also give you a housing contract to complete.
