Just to slightly expound on this:

A campus IFC can also include local GLOs along with NIC orgs as well.

While some people use the terms IFC and NIC interchangeably, it is important to keep in mind the scope that such terms should be used: IFC is local in scope, NIC is international.
Thank you for the clarification. And to slightly expound on your post:

Depending on the specific campus' IFC by-laws, it is possible that any/all fraternity chapters on campus could be a member of that campus' IFC. This may include, but certainly is not limited to, the following organizations.

Local fraternities, professional fraternities, unaffiliated national social fraternities, multicultural fraternities, special interest fraternities, members of the Fraternity Leadership Association (FLA)*, members of the National Association of Latino Fraternal Organizations (NALFO), members of the National Multicultural Greek Council (NMGC), members of the National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC), as well as members of the North-American Interfraternity Conference (NIC).

It is more likely that non NIC/FLA members join the IFC when there is no other umbrella group for them on that campus.

*Fraternity Leadership Association members (may be others)
Delta Kappa Epsilon (also NIC member)
Kappa Sigma
Phi Sigma Kappa (also NIC member)
Sigma Alpha Epsilon (also NIC member)
Sigma Lambda Beta (also NALFO and NIC member)
Sigma Pi (also NIC member)
