Overview
New Member Education is for all new members within the SFL community.
A new member is a student who has accepted a bid or invitation for membership but has not yet been initiated (or crossed) into a sorority or fraternity. New Member can also be described as someone who is considering an offer of membership from a sorority or fraternity group within SFL or is in the process of qualifying for membership in an organization.
Depending on the chapter, a new member might also be called an associate member, neophyte, pledge, pre-initiate or candidate.
