| Q: | How can I find out when formal recruitment will be held on my campus? |
| A: | Formal recruitment is planned and implemented by your Greek Affairs or collegiate Panhellenic office. They usually have a Web site listing more information or you can always give them a call. |

| Q: | How do I find out if Delta Gamma is participating in COB? |
| A: | You can contact your local Delta Gamma chapter, the Greek Affairs office or your local collegiate Panhellenic office.
|

| Q: | What is the difference between formal recruitment and continuous open bidding (COB)? |
| A: | Formal Recruitment is a more structured and all groups participate. It usually consists of 3-5 days of events early in the semester or just prior to the start of the semester. Continuous open bidding or COB, is a more informal way of recruiting new members that happens throughout the year. Only chapters who have vacancies in their membership are allowed to participate. |

| Q: | Is there a minimum grade point average required to pledge Delta Gamma? |
| A: | Delta Gamma requires that new members have at least a "C" college average or if college grades are not available, a minimum of a 2.7 GPA on a 4.0 scale from highschool. In addition, individual chapters and a collegiate Panhellenic can, and many do, raise the minimum GPA for participating in recruitment and pledging. To find out the minimum GPA for participating in recruitment on your campus is to contact your Greek Affairs or collegiate Panhellenic office.

| A: | Granddaughters, daughters, sisters or the same step-relations of Delta Gammas are considered Delta Gamma legacies.

| Q: | Do Delta Gamma legacies receive special consideration? |
| A: | Delta Gamma legacies do receive special consideration. After all, they hopefully have had a lifetime of teaching and experiences involved to some extent with Delta Gamma. Collegiate Delta Gamma chapters are asked to invite a legacy to at least one invitational round, if Panhellenic rules allow. |
| |
| Q: | How much does it cost to be a member? |
| A: | Membership costs vary from campus to campus. There are fixed fees from the Fraternity and the local collegiate Panhellenic. In addition, each collegiate chapter sets its own dues, which are voted on by the membership annually.
