Appeal to Participate

You may appeal the GPA requirement by completing this form: IFC Recruitment Appeal to Participate Form

IFC recruitment is not limited to underclassmen, and the Interfraternity Council encourages all men whose GPA is below a 2.7 who wish to join a fraternity to consider increasing one’s overall GPA and participating in recruitment activities in Fall 2013 or Spring 2014.
