ETHICAL LEADERSHIP.
SMU fraternities and sororities have had a presence on campus since the university opened in 1915. Approximately 43% of the undergraduate population currently holds membership in a Greek organization, providing a well-rounded college experience that aids in the development of personal and professional skills.
SMU is a deferred recruitment campus, allowing students to connect first with the institution and focus on academic success. Students interested in joining one of our fraternities or sororities must:
- Complete & pass 12 college credit hours at SMU in the previous semester (defined as fall or spring term) to joining (Dual credit & AP credit do not count)
- Achieve a 2.5 previous semester & cumulative GPA
- Not be on conduct probation or higher with the Office of Student Conduct & Community Standards at any point in the previous semester to joining or at the time of joining.
*Transfer students (first semester at SMU will be same as recruitment process) will need to provide a transcript to show that the academic requirements above have been met at their previous institution. Transfer students should still plan to register by any deadlines set by the council they are interested in.
Student safety and well-being are our top priorities. Hazing is a violation of Texas law, the SMU Student Code of Conduct, and the inter/national policies for each of our fraternities and sororities. Report possible hazing activity HERE.
