Membership in a fraternity or sorority offers students a unique opportunity to have a balanced college life with a focus on academic excellence, brotherhood/sisterhood, leadership development, service and responsible social interaction.

Greek life also offers students the opportunity to make lasting friendships with those who have similar ideals, passions and common purposes. Focusing on these fraternal principles helps students have both positive collegiate and Greek experiences.

With a diverse array of Greek organizations, each with its own unique qualities, there is a perfect fit for anyone looking to join a fraternity or sorority here at UWA. Enjoy finding your new home.

National Pan-Hellenic Council

The National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC) at the University of West Alabama is the unifying, coordinating and governing body of the six fraternities and sororities associated with the National Pan-Hellenic Conference. Everyone who joins an affiliated Greek organization becomes a Pan-Hellenic member. The main objective of NPHC is to enhance the college experience, educate its membership and provide a fraternal environment.

Membership selection in NPHC is an individualized process that is different for each organization. Chapters choose the time when they will take new members. This process, known as intake, generally begins with an interest meeting followed by a period of membership education. The membership process culminates with initiation and a probate, or “coming-out” show, in which the organization’s new members are revealed to the community.

We strongly encourage those interested in the Membership Intake process to contact the respective NPHC organizations for more information. To participate in the intake process with any NPHC organization, you must first attend an NPHC Convocation. This event will give you the opportunity to learn more about the NPHC organizations which are currently active at UWA.
