What is Panhellenic Primary Recruitment?
Panhellenic Primary Recruitment is a formalized mutual selection process by which a student is guaranteed to see all 16 chapters at Iowa State University who are members of the Collegiate Panhellenic Council. It is the main process the National Panhellenic Conference sororities use to recruit new members. The students begin by seeing all 16 chapters during the first round and then narrow options through a mutual selection process for remaining event.
Participation in formal recruitment does not guarantee an invitation to join a sorority, nor does it obligate a student to join. However, almost students participating in formal recruitment over the last 5 years have years have joined a NPC sorority at the weeks conclusion.
