Looking at the PFA can be a little misleading, in that membership eligibility is fairly broad -- member fraternities "shall be identified by, or related to a field of study or common interest." (
Per the PFA website.) The PFA includes professional fraternities, service fraternities (like APO) and honor fraternities (like Kappa Kappa Psi).

Perhaps the same applies to Sigma Phi Delta based on the "social-professional fraternity" references on its national and chapter websites. |
AGR does refer to itself that way, as perhaps do a few other GLOs. If they're being classified, they'd be best classified in the manner they describe themselves ("social-professional') or as social, non-general (or special interest) fraternities. They shouldn't be identified simply as "professional."
