Scholarship


OU Panhellenic sororities recognize the importance of scholarship. Many chapters have study hall hours to assist with time management. Tutors are available to guide students in their individual coursework. Academic achievement is promoted by national sororities, individual chapters and the Panhellenic Association through distribution of thousands of dollars in scholarships awarded annually.

 

Each semester the academic performance of every sorority is tabulated to determine an all-sorority grade-point average. The spring 2006 semester grade-point average was 3.29 and 3.24 for the fall 2006 semester. Since Spring 2004, the average all-sorority grade-point average has been above 3.2. This number has been consistently higher than the undergraduate all-women grade-point average. The OU Panhellenic Association has been recognized by the National Panhellenic Conference for its outstanding scholarship programming and performance.

 

The Panhellenic Association does not require a specific grade-point average to participate in Formal Recruitment. However, each sorority has a minimum grade requirement to be considered for membership and initiation. The average grade requirement for a freshman to join is around 3.2 and the average requirement for an upper class student is approximately 3.0. It is important to understand that if your grade-point average is much lower than the average chapter requirement, your opportunities of joining decrease.
