Academic success is extremely important to Greek organizations at Union. Each chapter requires a minimum grade point average in order to seek and maintain membership, as well as hold leadership positions. Typically, each chapter also requires new members to attend group study times in order to develop time management skills as you balance academic and Greek life. In addition, all chapters have a scholastics chair whose job is to encourage accountability in academic success. Each year, the university grants the Greek Scholarship award to both the sorority and fraternity on campus with the highest cumulative GPA. This award has been given out each year for the past 62 years! Each Greek organization at Union holds an average collective GPA of 3.0 or above.
