UMD Freshman Guide to Rushing Maryland is primarily a bar school, and Greek life has been on the decline in recent years. That said, if you’re looking to meet people, build a social circle, and be part of the party scene, rushing a fraternity can still be a great move. Important Note: Fraternity ranks and social relations shift every year — and even vary between class years. What’s seen as “top” for juniors might not be the same for freshmen. This list is based on current trends like bar presence, party/darty activity, and sorority relations. Use it as a reference, not a rule. ⸻ Top Tier These fraternities are the most socially relevant right now. Strong bar presence, invites to major events, and solid connections with top sororities. • Alpha Tau Omega (ATO) – Well-balanced socially. Strong at darties and bar nights. Generally respected across grades. • Sigma Chi (Sig Chi) – Big with top sororities. More focused on bar/formal events than darties. • Theta Chi (OX) – Merged with Phi Delt. Took a hit a couple years ago but are rebuilding and active in major events. • Sigma Nu (SNU) – Previously dominant but lost momentum after losing their party house. Still strong socially and may rise again if their house returns. ⸻ Upper Mid Tier Consistently active frats with decent party/darty scenes and sorority involvement. Maybe not as visible as top tier but still relevant. • Tau Epsilon Phi (TEP) – Hosts TEPFest, one of the biggest darties of the year. Great relations and strong day party presence. • Delta Sigma Phi (DSig) – Smart academically, but also a legit party house. Balanced vibe. • Lambda Chi Alpha (Lambda) – Recently off SoMo (social probation). Active again and generally solid. • Zeta Psi – Never on probation. Steady socially, decent relations, not the flashiest but respected. • Kappa Alpha Order (KA) – Still recovering from a past suspension. Restricted in throwing but starting to bounce back. ⸻ Mid Tier Not huge bar/social presence but own key darty houses and are very active in the daytime scene. • Alpha Delta Phi (ADPhi) – Own two darty houses. Consistent events and big during daytime weekends. • Beta Theta Pi (Beta) – Similar to ADPhi. Strong darty presence, lower-key at bars. ⸻ Lower Tier Currently not very active socially. Limited bar or event presence, but things can change over time. • Sigma Alpha Epsilon (SAE) • Phi Kappa Tau (Phi Tau) • Alpha Sigma Phi (Alpha Sig) • Sigma Phi Society (Sig Phi) • Sigma Alpha Mu (Sammy) ⸻ Final Thoughts Ranks don’t matter nearly as much as fit. Go where you vibe with the people. The best experience comes from joining a group that feels right for you — not just what’s seen as “top.” Trust your instincts and keep an open mind during rush. Good luck.
