Sure! There are no rules against active members reaching out to you prior to recruitment, but please know that they will likely be talking in generalities about the sorority experience since you’ll still need to go through primary recruitment to join any of our NPC chapters. If you happen to talk to a current member and you feel uncomfortable for any reason, please do not hesitate to let us know at rvp.gtcpc@gmail.com.

PNM: Potential New Member, that’s you!

RC: Recruitment Counselor: a current CPC woman responsible for leading a group of PNMs through recruitment. She is disaffiliated from her own chapter during recruitment to remain an unbiased, confidential resource for you during the entire process.

NPC: National Panhellenic Conference: the umbrella group for all 26 sororities. This Conference has representatives from each organization, and they help unify all of our chapters on a national level.

CPC: Collegiate Panhellenic Council: the unifying body for our chapters here on campus. CPC focuses on sorority life specific to Georgia Tech.

FSL: Fraternity and Sorority Life

DEI: Diversity, equity, and Inclusion. Greek Life is doing their best to ensure that everyone feels included and confortable in the Greek Community.

This year, recruitment will consist of our normal four rounds spread over five days. Round one consists of two in-person days, followed by three days of in-person conversations with sisters from the chapters you have been invited back to.

Your RC will reach out to you sometime during the week of July 13th if you have already registered, so keep an eye out for a phone call or email. When they reach out to you, they'll also ask about your availability to have a meeting with them and the other PNMs in your group to start to get to know one another and answer any additional questions you may have. But don't worry if you register after this meeting happens! Your RCs will be reaching out to you as soon as possible after you sign up and you can ask them any questions you may have then.

No, absolutely not! We are hoping to make this experience as authentic as possible, come as you are! Make sure you feel your best, whatever that means for you.

In the Greek Community, diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) is very important to us. We want to ensure that the representation and participation of different groups of individuals, including people of different ages, races and ethnicities, abilities and disabilities, genders, religions, cultures and sexual orientations are present.

That depends on how much you would like to be involved in your own chapter. You will need to attend chapter meetings and spend time on your philanthropy.

This document contains information on the cost of each chapter!

Yes, of course! Our community loves being involved with other houses and their philanthropies. Greek Life provides many opportunities to meet people from other organizations. You are not limited to only being involved in your own chapter.

Sorority philanthropy is a specific organization or cause a sorority, at the national or international level, will raise awareness for and donate money through various events held throughout the school year by each local chapter. Georgia Tech CPC’s philanthropy is Circle of Sisterhood, which works to promote education in young women around the globe. Check out this page for more information on each chapter’s philanthropy.

We recommend our primary recruitment process to get the best chance at joining any of our NPC chapters, but we realize this isn’t for everyone! Our continuous open bidding (COB) process allows you to meet NPC chapter members in a more informal way. The only downside to our COB process is that it starts after primary recruitment, so if chapters have already filled with new members, they won’t participate in COB, or chapters will only recruit a few members through this process. We also recommend our Associate recruitment process! Our Associate chapter, Alpha Omega Epsilon, recruit separately from our primary recruitment process because of their specific membership requirements. Alpha Omega Epsilon is STEM-based. Associate recruitment will occur after primary recruitment, and you can learn more about this chapter on our website. As always, do what’s best for you, and you can also join through any one of these processes at any point in your time at Tech.

If you have a conflict with any of the recruitment events, please fill out this excuse form. We will work with you as best we can to adjust your schedule.

You can reach out to Lindsey Bryson, our Recruitment Vice President at rvp.gtcpc@gmail.com or through the contact form on our website!
