MCGC Recruitment FAQs
Do MCGC chapters participate in community service?
Most chapters participate in projects hosted by the UC Berkeley community or create their own community service projects. Some even host at least one community service event per month. Academics are TOP priority for all our chapters.
Is it hard to maintain academics while in an MCGC chapter?
Academics are a priority for all our chapters. Members often balance working, research, other clubs and their membership. In fact, the All-Greek GPA is typically higher than the All-Campus average!
Is being a member costly?
Each chapter has a different set of costs associated with membership. You should contact the organizations you are interested in to get a breakdown of costs.
