Out Of State Students Make Phi Delt New Home

My senior year of high school was like a dream come true — I played an active part in school clubs, was vice president of student council, and Capitan of the football and track teams.
When I graduated and left Chicago to go to UCF, I went from knowing everyone to not knowing anyone on UCF’s 53,000 student campus. I also knew very little of “going Greek,” but I saw that many students were a part of UCF’s Greek life such as the orientation leaders, teacher assistants, and RA’s.
I decided to try it out and I have not looked back on my decision since.
Greek life has taken the size of the campus and made it smaller. I know at least 3 people everywhere on campus from going Greek. I can also keep on playing sports on Phi Delt’s teams, which just beat out all other UCF fraternities to win the Greek Cup Championship.

Another concern for me being out of state was the money issue of paying fraternity dues. I found out Phi Delta Theta is actually one of the most affordable fraternities at UCF. Not only are the dues cheap, but we also have a new fully furnished house off campus that is bigger than many other fraternity houses on Greek row. We save so much money by being off campus, we can fund the best socials with the top sororities of UCF.
Phi Delta Theta just makes sense. It is composed of a bunch of guys who were athletes, head of their class in academics, and gave back to their community during their high school years. Phi Delt still instills these qualities into its active brothers.
It is more than a friendship that you will get from Phi Delta Theta — it is a brotherhood for life. Rushing Phi Delta Theta helped in many ways in becoming more than just another student at UCF. I stand out with a prominent group of men and continue to help and get involved with my school.
