While the NIC does not interfere with membership selection a LARGE percentage of NIC organizations restrict membership to undergrads. I do not even know how to go about looking for those who do not.

By talking to members of the NIC organizations.

I think he meant more en masse. For the OP he'd need to look at every chapter on his campus individually and find out, but there probably isn't a way to make a complete overall list without going to each national website and checking one by one either.

Unless you know, someone else on GC's done it before.

I know what he meant, but there would be no point in having a list like that. Knowing that ABC Fraternity accepts grad students is useless if ABC Fraternity doesn't exist at University of State.

Eh, it wouldn't help the OP, but it's one of those "interesting facts" that I personally enjoy learning about GLOs. It really wouldn't be "useful" just interesting.

I can pretty much guarantee you he will not have the time or the energy. I know some law students who would participate in some specific chapter events occasionally -- I did sometimes. But there really is not time to be an active chapter member, much less a pledge, and also do law school well.

AR1000, focus on law school. I'm fairly confident there will be a good social life there, which will involve your fellow law students and will complement, not compete with your studies. Also, you might find a group like Phi Delta Phi or Phi Alpha Delta to be up your alley (assuming they have chapters there; I haven't taken the time to check).

You said you've always been interested in rushing? Is there a reason you didn't?

Really? This is the first I've heard that. Are you sure you don't mean NIC organizations on your campus?

I think he's right. I'm in Grad School right now, and I'm active.
