Informal Recruitment 2011
Informal Recruitment (also known as COB) is a special process in which some chapters take in new members during the fall semester. Not all chapters hold informal recruitment every year; whether a chapter holds informal recruitment is dependent on a number of factors.
Information regarding Fall 2011 Informal Recruitment will be posted at the beginning of the Fall 2011 semester. Not all chapters will be participating in Informal Recruitment, so please check here for the most complete and up to date information. Only women who are in their sophomore year or above are eligible to participate in Informal Recruitment. Women who have been initiated into another Panhellenic sorority are not eligible to participate in recruitment.
