Membership intake is the process that NPHC and culturally-based fraternities and sororities utilize to recruit, interview, select, and initiate new members. The period of membership intake varies from chapter to chapter, but generally does not exceed 10 weeks. While each organization sets its own schedule and requirements for membership intake, candidates must typically have a 2.5 or better GPA, hold at least 12 credit hours, and have an extensive appreciation and history of volunteerism.
Please contact each NPHC or MGC chapter directly to find out about their specific intake process.
