Unrecognized Organizations

If you and/or your student is interested in a fraternity or sorority that cannot be found on our website, it is likely that they

    • do not currently have any undergraute members on campus
    • have not yet been established at Columbia University
    • they are currently suspended
    • have had their recognition revoked
    • are not directly affiliated with Columbia University

 and therefore are considered dormant and/or unrecognized organizations. Unrecognized fraternities and sororities do not have the same rights and privileges of registered student organizations.

 

Dormant organizations are fraternities and/or sororities who are actively recruiting undergraduate students to join as members as they more than likely had all previous members graduate. Currently, there is one Multicultural Greek Council organization that is dormant:

Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc

If you are interested in a dormant organization, please reach out to the Associate Director of Fraternity and Sorority Life for appropriate contact information.


There are organizations that are not recognized but work with the FSL office. They recruit Columbia students but are not permitted the same rights as recognized organizations as they are not directly affliated. Currently, there are two Multicultural Greek Council organizations that are unrecognized but recruit:

Alpha Kappa Alpha

Kappa Alpha Psi

If you are interetsed in one of these organizations, please reach out to the Associate Director of Fraternity and Sorority Life to receive the appropriate contact information.

 

There are organizations that are currently suspended and are not permitted to recruit new members. Currently, there is one Multicultural Greek Council organiations that is under suspension:

Omega Phi Beta (suspension until May 2018)

If you are interested in a suspended organization, you may reach out to the Associate Director of Fraternity and Sorority Life for appropriate timeline.

 

If you need more information about a group or have questions, please contact the Fraternity and Sorority Life staff at reslife-fsl@columbia.edu.
