If it was a part of the intake process, then yes it would be considered hazing. However, from my experience, as far as NPHC orgs are concerned, you can't get branded unless you are a member.
And like my Soror Msn4med1975 stated, it is a personal decision whether or not you want to get branded.

Hazing can be either an official or unofficial part of your intake process. Hazing can also be perpetrated on both members and pre-initiates. Hazing can also be consentual or non consentual. It just depends on your organization's definition. I'm not expecting anyone to change their behavior. I recognize the chances of anything going "wrong" with this are slim. But if you really care (I really am not concerned) you could call your group's HQ to see if it's permissible.
Personally, it's not something I'd be comfortable comfortable calling the head of my organization to tell them we were doing.
