What to Wear

What should I wear during
Primary Recruitment?

There is no right or wrong outfit to wear during recruitment. You should wear whatever makes you feel confident, comfortable, and the most like you! However, as each round progresses and becomes more formal, the outfit suggestions do too!

If you check out our Pinterest page (@udpanhellenic), you will see pictures of what people have worn in the past for each day. You can also find this information in the Panhellenic Recruitment Guide that will be given to you at Orientation.

Sisterhood Round: You will be provided with a t-shirt!

This round is the most informal, so casual skirts/shorts/pants and comfortable shoes are recommended to wear with the provided t-shirt. Remember, you'll be wearing this outfit all day so make sure you're comfortable!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Philanthropy Round: The dress for the Philanthropy round is business casual.

In past years women tend to have worn nicer skirts/pants and a sweater/top or a casual dress, but wear what makes you comfortable!

Preference: This is the most formal round of recruitment as the rounds will include Preference Ceremonies from each chapter.

This day you should wear banquet-style outfits—think of something you would have worn at the end of your senior year to a scholarship banquet or awards ceremony.

Bid Day

We recommend wearing comfortable shorts, skirts, or pants with comfy shoes. The sorority which extends a bid will provide a t-shirt or sweatshirt once receiving a bid. You will be celebrating with your new sisters, so you want to be comfortable!
