Individuals interested in joining Zeta Tau Alpha or another Greek organization frequently like to know how long they should expect rush to last. Rush, if you don’t know, is the membership period of the year and it usually takes place at the beginning of each semester. If you are interested in rushing Alpha Kappa Alpha or any other organization then you should know that rush is generally limited to eight weeks although it does not always last this long. During this period of time the Greek organizations discuss with the new members the traditions, history, and the values the organization holds. During this period of time new members should anticipate being part of community service projects, leadership retreats, as well as other opportunities where new members will get to know one another and also understand how the organization works. Members will also likely receive their first Greek apparel during this time reaffirming their membership in the organization.

Once new members are established they will find they enjoy the organization even more because they will have a close knit group of friends to party with, study with, exercise with, and simply enjoy their college experience with.
