How to Join a Fraternity or Sorority at UCF

Thousands of students at the University of Central Florida have found community and belonging as a member of a fraternity or sorority. Rush opens in the Fall and Spring semesters. Each council houses unique fraternities and sororities with long histories and special traditions. Where will you find a home?

The UCF Greek Community (Fraternity and Sorority Life) is comprised of 48 organizations. These organizations have different processes to join throughout the Fall and Spring semesters.

Diversified Greek Council (DGC)

DGC intake occurs during the first few weeks of the fall and spring semester.

Informationals are a time for DGC organizations to share information with prospective students. These sessions provide greater in-depth knowledge about the organization and membership requirements. Prospective students looking to join DGC should attend an informational for that organization.

The DGC Cultural Fair and Yardshow are recruitment events hosted by DGC that are optional opportunities for interested individuals.
