The Interfraternity Council (IFC) at UNC Charlotte is the coordinating and governing board of the fraternities. IFC is a self-governed body made up of 7 executive officers in charge of various aspects of Greek life. Our goal as a council is to lead UNC Charlotte’s Greek community in the right direction.
The Interfraternity Council is, and continues to be, a key liaison between the Greek community and UNC Charlotte. IFC is proud to be one of the diverse councils on campus representing over 800 fraternity men and 13 fraternities. These members are held to a higher standard as we work collectively to build a better community of great men. The Interfraternity Council is honored to lead the way by creating new traditions and continually setting the standard for excellence here at UNC Charlotte.
At UNC Charlotte, the Interfraternity Council consists of 13 active organizations and is continuing to grow. All 13 organizations consistently strive for positive interfraternal relations, brotherhood, scholarship and service, leadership opportunities, lifelong friends and creating a greater campus community. Through these characteristics of our council, each member of a fraternity will actively partake in philanthropy events, community service, educational seminars, as well as social gatherings with other students.
How to Join an IFC Fraternity
All students who want to join a fraternity or sorority must have a minimum cumulative GPA of a 2.60, community service experience, and involvement in clubs or community activities. At the beginning of the Fall and Spring semesters, the Interfraternity Council holds its Formal Recruitment process. IFC Recruitment gives potential members the opportunity to meet members of each fraternity. The IFC Recruitment process is one of mutual selection: the fraternities decide which recruits they wish to invite into membership, and the recruits choose which fraternity they wish to join. Each organization will host individual recruitment events in various locations on campus and throughout the metropolitan area. Eating lunch together, playing sports, completing service projects, meeting alumni, viewing slide shows or video presentations, and just asking questions of fraternity members in a casual atmosphere are a few examples of things potential members might do during IFC Recruitment. The formal process lasts one week and allows students the opportunity to explore Fraternity & Sorority Life without joining any particular fraternity. At the conclusion of recruitment, each fraternity extends “bids,” or offers of membership, to men that it wishes to be part of its organization.
