2022 FSL Chapter and Individual Award Applications Are Being Accepted

Annually, Fraternity & Sorority Life recognizes individual members and exemplary chapters through the Fraternity and Sorority Awards night. We acknowledge that the past few years have been difficult.   This year we aim to continue to not only recognize the groups and individuals who have excelled in the traditional sense, but to also recognize the resiliency and dedication of the chapters that have continued to navigate the terrain of operating through the COVID 19 Pandemic. 

Awards will be presented at FSL Awards Night on April 18th.  Information on the event has been sent directly to chapters already.  Below is information on both the chapter and individual award application processes.  

Chapter Awards

The fraternity & sorority community recognizes its member organizations annually for the accomplishment and commitment to excellence.  This year there are seven general award categories, as well as one MGC specific award and the Chapter of the Year Award.

Chapters have the opportunity to apply for a single award or numerous awards in one sitting.  Each chapter is able to submit unlimited award applications as to allow the chapter to split up submission responsibilities. We encourage chapters to apply for all applicable awards for optimal recognition. Application deadline is March 27th, 2022 at 11:59PM, click here to apply. If interested, we suggest connecting with chapter leadership to ensure accurate and timley submission.
