“Since its founding in 1848, the University of Mississippi has been shaped by the fraternity men who call Ole Miss home. We are excited that you are interested in leaving your legacy at UM by joining the Fraternal Movement. If you’re looking for a community that will challenge you to be a better man then we will find a spot for you in the Interfraternity Council. I encourage you to contact myself or the IFC Executive Board should you need any assistance throughout your recruitment process.”

Grade Requirement

As agreed upon by all IFC fraternities through the IFC bylaws, potential new members must have a 2.70 / 4.00 cumulative GPA to participate in Formal Recruitment, receive a membership invitation at any time during the year, or be initiated into a fraternity. There is no exception to this requirement.

Academic Transcripts

Students should submit their final high school or college transcripts after graduation or course completion. Grades are verified by the transcripts on file with the University of Mississippi. The cumulative GPA on the transcript is the one used for Formal Recruitment.

Students should make sure their academic transcripts reflect a cumulative GPA on a 4.00 scale. Because your high school or college understands your courses and credits best, Fraternity & Sorority Life and the university do not calculate a cumulative GPA. Please make sure the cumulative GPA on a 4.00 scale is listed on the transcript before it is mailed to the university.

Update and mail final transcripts ASAP to:
Office of Admissions, P.O. Box 1848, University, MS 38677-1848.
