At the beginning of every semester, Phi Delta Epsilon recruits new members into the fraternity through a three-day event called Rush. During Rush, prospective new members will have the opportunity to learn about Phi Delta Epsilon, its values and its members. Conversely, older members will be given the chance to get to know the new members at these events.

After Rush, prospective new members will be interviewed by either one or two of our older members. During interviews, older members will ask prospective new members a series of questions to get to know them better. This process helps us determine whether Phi Delta Epsilon is right for you.

When Rush and Interviews have finished, Phi Delta Epsilon will award all new members with a bid and an invitation to Induction. Here, new members will be officially admitted into the fraternity and they will have all of the rights, priveleges and responsibilities of members of Phi Delta Epsilon. On this day, we extend a hearty congratulations to our new members!
