New members of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. are accepted on both the undergraduate and graduate levels. Local chapters publicize when they will take new members and hold information sessions to meet potential members, discuss the sorority’s values and expectations, and explain the membership intake process. Any applicant for membership must receive a majority of the votes of members of the chapter to which she has applied.
Collegiate Membership
A woman may be admitted for membership in an undergraduate chapter only while in attendance at a four-year accredited college or university, or in a liberal arts/transfer program of a junior or community college, once they submit proof of intention to enter and obtain a degree from a four-year school. Must be enrolled in the semester for which you are applying.
Candidates may be accepted for undergraduate membership after successfully completing one quarter, semester, or trimester. The cumulative grade point average required for membership is 2.5 (on a 4.0 scale).
Institutions may impose more stringent and additional requirements.
Alumnae Membership

There is no GPA requirement for alumnae membership.
