High Point University - HPU Greek Life Reviews

Many girls go through recruitment freshman year for a few reasons and a few reasons only. I was a freshman once and I did the same thing. We all want to feel like we belong in a group as we travel far away from home for the first time in our lives. We have our independence and now we want our girl squad. Some people do it for friends and some people do it for the social class. Freshman girls tend to get lost in "who's popular?" or "who can party?" But coming from my experience, those are the least important attributes to a chapter. Find the one that makes you feel like you found your second home. Yes, you will still come across a social hierarchy or "mean girls", even in your own chapter. Many girls, in your sorority or not, will worry about wealth, Instagram likes, how attractive you are, and where you fall on the social scale. Do not lose your value because of how superficial some girls may be. There are some down to earth ladies. You just need to find them in the crowd of superficial people.

72% of the school is in greek life. the school watches over everything though. only minus

greek life is the retainer for HPU and its a big reason why a lot of people don't transfer in the spring

Greek life runs the campus even though its only about 34 percent. Almost every girl gets into a sorority but the rush process is very fake and surface level. For fraternities, its harder to get a bid, but the process is way more genuine and casual. very rare to see attractive guys and girls that aren't greek, but still many unattractive ppl in greek life. Parties are all usually the same, but if you drink enough theyre all fun. Hazing is common and not that bad in fraternities, but greek life is too overbearing and gets frats in trouble all the time for it. Srats don't really haze. That said, if youre new, I highly recommend rushing because greek life is huge and a fun way to get involved on campus. Go greek, just don't expect that much.

Was a Pike pledge, interesting school.

Stop kicking off fraternities

go greek

Greek Life is very big at HPU. Fraternity parties and events control the High Point social scene. I am apart of Greek Life and its awesome, I love every second of it. I could see if you are not a member of Greek Life why High Point might not be as enjoyable for you. Girls tend to get into a sorority very easily, while for Guys its a lot more selective and difficult.
