Our new members join a path taken by thousands of men before them—all committed to making the most of three distinct membership phases.
The journey begins with an introductory New Member phase. This is the starting point for all of our members, as they get to know the other men in their chapter, discover the fraternity's rich history, explore the resources and leadership opportunities we offer, and learn to thrive in a fraternal atmosphere.
Highlights for New Members include:
A six-week educational period, led by chapter officers
Mentorship program with an older member of the chapter
Guest speakers who have helpful insight to share
Introductory leadership programs at the national level
For the majority of their undergraduate years, our members are Initiated Members. This stage typically begins about halfway through a New Member's first term, culminating toward an enlightening initiation that grants full, lifelong membership in the fraternity.
Initiated members gain access to many new opportunities, such as:
Eligible to run for office within the chapter
Apply for flagship leadership programs at the national level
Attend our biennial national convention
Voting on chapter and national-level affairs
Membership in Delta Sigma Phi is for life, meaning our Alumni Members continue to reap the benefits of fraternity well after graduation. Once a member becomes an alumnus of their college or university, they also become an alumnus of Delta Sigma Phi.
At this stage, and for the rest of their lives, members enjoy many benefits:
Join their fellow chapter alumni in the local Alumni Chapter
Connect with other Delta Sigs via regional Alumni Associations
Attend our biennial national convention, potentially as a voting delegate
Volunteer as a chapter advisor, commissioner, facilitator or board member
Give back to the Delta Sigma Phi Foundation to ensure success for the next generation
