One must be a full time matriculating student at a particular university in order to participate in NPC recruitment and to accept a bid and maintain active collegiate membership. This is an NPC requirement.

NPC sororities?

I'm thinking this is one of those instances where we want to be careful to be specific, or else the OP and some others might be confused. As was recently noted in another thread, not all fraternities are NIC fraternities, and not all sororities are NPC sororities.

It's my understanding that some (all?) NPHC orgs have city-wide chapters that serve more than one campus. Other orgs may as well. And some fraternities may allow students attending a nearby college to pledge, like dekeguy describes.

But I'm pretty sure CGers in NPC orgs have said in the past that only full-time students at the school where the chapter is chartered can join chapters of NPC orgs. And since the OP mentioned the "Collegiate Panhellenic Council," I'm guessing she's asking about NPC orgs.

Agreed. Greekchat obviously has many threads that go off on tangents, but there are some cases where these tangents will only serve to confuse the original poster as well as others who will come along later. They don't understand the different acronyms and all they see is that "YES!"

To the OP:

There are two universities in our city, my school (U of M) is much larger than the other (U of W). My sorority (Alpha Gamma Delta), as well as the other two (Alpha Phi and Alpha Delta Pi) all have students from both universities. However, all three organisations (meaning international headquarters) made that decision. It is not in any way common, but you might want to email College B's panhellenic to find out if it is a possibility. The worst thing that happens is they say no.
