Each day is different, with events on each day lasting a different amount of time. The first day will consist of seven, 30-minute rounds, the second day can be bettwen on and five, 45 minute rounds and the last day can be up to two, 60 minute rounds. Each day has breaks in between to travel to the next round. The specifics of each day will be gone over during orientation and in the recruitment handbook. You will have the ability to talk to your recruitment counselor about any questions you have.
Like most on-campus organizations, there are costs associated with being a member. Each chapter is a bit different in what their membership fees look like. Here is a financial breakdown from the 2024 Primary Recruitment season! CLICK HERE
About 50% of our community consists of commuter students, with an even larger percent living in off-campus housing. There really isn’t much of a difference other than making the time to commute to and from events that the organization may be having during the week.
The new member process differs between all seven sororities on campus. In our chapters here on campus, it is an enjoyable process where each individual new member has the opportunity to meet the sisters of their chapter, meet their fellow new members, and learn more about the history and values of that chapter.
George Mason University, as well as all seven Panhellenic Sororities on campus, have a zero tolerance policy for hazing.
Please let your recruitment counselor know during orientation and she will give you a form to fill out. We are especially understanding if you have class or another educational obligation!
Not at all. Participating in Recruitment gives you the chance to learn about sorority life and decide if it’s something you want to be a part of. There’s no obligation to join a chapter just because you go through the process.
Panhellenic doesn’t have legacy policies. Being a legacy does not guarantee an invitation, and you're not expected to join that chapter either. Sororities focus on getting to know each Potential New Member and look for a strong personal fit.
Yes! Recruitment is designed to help you explore the Panhellenic community and get to know each chapter. Attending all scheduled events ensures you’re fully informed and making the most of your options. If you skip an event you were invited to without an approved excuse, you’ll be removed from the recruitment process.

Not necessarily. Recruitment is a mutual selection process, which means outcomes vary. While participating doesn’t guarantee a bid, most women who complete Primary Recruitment do end up with a bid!
Focusing on just one chapter or a small group of them can limit your opportunities and set you up for disappointment. We encourage you to keep an open mind, explore every chapter, and base your decisions on your own experience, not on what others think.
