Not every NPHC sorority and fraternity prohibits (or has details on their websites) applicants who are members of another NPHC; NPC; or IFC GLO. Delta does and it is on our national website:
One of Delta's requirements for collegiate applicants is "the student is not a member of any society holding membership in the National Pan-Hellenic Council, Inc. or the Panhellenic Conference, Inc." One of the requirements for alumnae applicants is "the female is not a member of, nor has been expelled from, any society holding membership in the National Pan-Hellenic Council, Inc. or the Panhellenic Conference, Inc."
It's so important to us that it's on NHQ's FAQ, in addition to "If you are a member of another organization holding membership in the National Pan-Hellenic Council, Inc. or the Panhellenic Conference, Inc. you are not eligible to join Delta Sigma Theta."
***This has yet to include other sororities such as those in NALFO. I have not noticed any sororities that are members of NALFO that have such applicant restrictions on their websites. Maybe this will be updated if attempts at cross-membership becomes more of an issue.

I have a question about that, if you don't mind. So, if a woman is a member of an NPC organization in college and graduates with no interruption in her membership, then chooses to join an Alumnae chapter of an NPHC, that's not allowed? The reason I ask is because a very prominent member of my GLO is also a member of Delta Sigma Theta. DrPhil, if you want, I can pm you more about it but, I always thought NPC membership didn't hinder NPHC membership, if you wanted to be a member of both, honorably. Am I wrong about this?
