I'm not sure how APO works, but I'm in a service sorority, and it doesn't matter to us what year you are in school. A girl in my pledge class, we pledged in the fall, became active sisters in December, and she graduated that following spring. Just make sure you have the time and the commitment to give to both organizations, as well as your school work.

I pledged APO as a junior. I had seniors in my pledge class. In my chapter at least it didn't matter what year you were.

I don't know of anyone in my chapter who was pledging APO and a social fraternity/sorority during the same semester, but we certainly had several chapter members who were also members of IFC/Panhellenic GLOs.

Hi everyone!

I just wanted to let you know I am now an official pledge to Alpha Phi Omega and I absolutely love it!

Oh and I do want to clarify that I definitely would NOT be pledging both this and a panhellenic GLO at the same time since the APO initiation is in April. Panhellenic recruitment isn't until the fall. We will see how this semester turns out. Thank you for all your advice! I appreciate it.

wait so u cant join APO in the fall ? and if u do ur not a "member" until april?

Dancemodel-

I'm sure that she could have pledged APO in the fall. Just like a social org, there is a new member period before initiation. If she would have rushed in the fall, I'm fairly certain that she would have been initiated near the end of the fall semester.

FAnne- Welcome to the brotherhood
