Rush, Recruitment, and Intake

Councils

• Asian Greek Council

  Each fall quarter during True Bruin Welcome Week (zero week), the Asian Greek Council (AGC) coordinates a "Rush Week" where students who are interested in joining a fraternity or sorority have an opportunity to preview each organization. Chapters offer bids, or invitations to join at the end of "Rush Week". AGC chapters mostly recruit new members during the fall quarter.
  
  Pre-registration is not required and there is not cost to attend "Rush Week" activities. For more information about joining an AGC fraternity or sorority, visit the AGC Recruitment Page.

• Interfraternity Council

  Each fall quarter during True Bruin Welcome Week (zero week), the Interfraternity Council (IFC) coordinates a more formal recruitment week where students who are interested in joining a fraternity have an opportunity to preview each organization.
