How do I join?
Like other Greek organizations, Pi Delta Psi holds Rush events at the beginning of every semester. During these events, potential members are encouraged to meet the Brothers and get a glimpse of what Fraternity life is like. At the end of Rush, potential members are granted a bid to continue forth in our induction process. If the bid is accepted, potential members then undergo an education process that familiarizes individuals with the Fraternity and our ideals. All members of Pi Delta Psi nationwide engage in the same education process, helping to unify all of our chapters.
