What are the membership requirements for joining Iota Phi Lambda?

Iota Phi Lambda believes membership in a sorority is voluntary and a matter of mutual selection. Membership in Iota is by invitation of the local chapters.

Membership in Iota Phi Lambda is divided into two areas, Graduate and Undergraduate. The basic qualifications are as follows:

Graduate:

• Must be a Graduate of accredited business college or university, or;
• Graduate of a 4 year college who successfully owns/operates a business, or;
• Graduated of accredited two-year business college meeting the requirements of 48 credit hours.

Undergraduate:

• Any student who is pursuing a 4-year course and who has completed at least fifteen credit hours (1 semester) of college work with the average grade of that school, may apply for membership. However, she may not be initiated until she has a total of thirty semester hours (1 year) to her credit.
