Some organizations accept second semester freshman with at least 12 credit hours from UNL. However, it is highly recommended that students wait to join until their sophomore year. Many organizations require potential members to be actively involved on campus and in the community. All MGC organizations have adopted non-hazing guidelines to ensure that membership into their respective organizations is a non-threatening and supportive experience.

Informationals

Informationals almost always precede the Membership Intake Process, and they are typically followed by one-on-one interviews with interested candidates. Individuals interested in membership with any MGC member organizations are highly encouraged to attend informationals, as well as any programs or events put on by MGC and the organization they are interested in. Further, prospective members are encouraged to research the organization they are interested in and contact members with any questions they may have, such as the intake/recruitment chair or membership educator.
