Greek Life at UCA
For 96 years, the Greek system at the University of Central Arkansas has offered an opportunity for involvement that is truly unique. Scholarship, leadership, brotherhood and sisterhood, community service, and social activities are the key elements of the 19 fraternities and sororities at UCA.
The opportunities for involvement and participation are numerous, and we encourage you and your student to take a good look at what our Greek community has to offer.
Since 1915 Greek Organizations at UCA have been an integral part of campus life. Currently, 19 organizations (11 fraternities, 8 sororities, including 6 traditionally African American Greek organizations) comprise UCA’s outstanding Greek community.
At UCA we practice “deferred recruitment” which means that a student must have 12 hours of college credit completed with a minimum grade point average of a 2.3 to be eligible to receive a bid from a fraternity or sorority. This excludes concurrent and intermediate courses. Groups may set higher standards than this minimum standard; it is important to check with individual groups for eligibility requirements.
