Potential New Member Registration Process

Some potential members may not know sorority alumnae. In an effort to assist potential members, the NWHCAP Association has the following suggested procedure for providing your information to alumnae groups.

The potential member will complete a Potential New Member Registration Form and submit the form and requested information to the Panhellenic Recruitment Chair via email. The Panhellenic Recruitment Chairman will then distribute this information to the Panhellenic Alumnae in the area. Each sorority alumnae group will use the information you submit in an effort to obtain a personal reference for the potential member. Your local references on your resume are therefore very important.

The sooner you submit this information, the more time you will give the sorority alumnae groups to contact their members on your behalf.

This procedure DOES NOT guarantee that the designated sororities will recruit these candidates.

You should not ask for a recommendation from a sorority alumna, but it is to your advantage to make family and friends aware of your intention to participate in the recruitment process. If an alumna offers to write a recommendation for you, you may accept their offer.

The Panhellenic’s goal is to assist all Northwest Harris County potential members in having the best recruitment possible, ending with the maximum number of girls becoming members of a sorority.

It is to your advantage to submit all completed registration information to the Recruitment Chairman as soon as possible after Information Night on April 15, 2008, even if you are undecided on your choice of schools or if you are attending a school with deferred recruitment.  Packets must be received by June 1, 2008 for fall recruitment and September 15, 2008 for deferred recruitment.

  • Contact the NWHCAP Recruitment Chairman, Sheri Sheppard 832-912-8280 or the Recruitment Co-Chairman, Sharon Graham 281-820-6756, or via email if you have questions.
