FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
If you have any further questions about recruitment or the pledging process, please feel free to contact sydneystevens@ou.edu.
Who can join?
We welcome all majors, backgrounds, and classifications of students. You can even be in another social fraternity or sorority. The only criterion is that you have an earnest desire to help out those in need and devote time to chapter activities.
Should I attend recruitment?
Pinning is the only mandatory event, but other recruitment events are strongly encouraged. The fellowships and service projects are designed for you to receive a glimpse of service and friendship in our chapter. All information meetings are identical, so there is no need to attend more than one.
What is Pinning?
Pinning is the ceremony where you become an official pledge of Alpha Phi Omega. The ceremony will be held in the Oklahoma Memorial Union on September 12, 2026 at 10 a.m. Dress for the ceremony is business casual.
How much does it cost?
As a pledge, you will owe a payment of $60 prior to pinning and $55 prior to initiation. These dues go toward events, food, gifts, and other activities during your pledging period. Once you become an initiated member, dues are $145 per semester. We offer payment plans, sponsorships, and individual consideration.
What is the time commitment?
The pledging process is 8-10 weeks long. On average, pledges can expect to commit 2-5 hours per week to the fraternity. Pledges are required to attend weekly pledge and chapter meetings every Wednesday evening. An in-depth list of requirements is given during our information meetings.
Will I get hazed?
Absolutely not! Our chapter follows the national and campus policy of zero tolerance. You will never be asked to do favors or perform personal service for initiated members.
