Saint Francis University - SFU Overview

  About Greek Life at SFU

Saint Francis University sits in Loretto, Pennsylvania — a small Catholic school tucked in the Allegheny Mountains with a tight-knit campus feel. The Greek system here reflects that same sense of scale. There are a handful of fraternities and sororities active on campus, making this one of the smaller Greek communities you'll find at a Division I school, but chapters tend to be close and involved in campus life.

On the fraternity side, you've got Alpha Phi Delta, Phi Kappa Theta, Psi Upsilon, Tau Kappa Epsilon, and Sigma Chi operating under IFC. The sorority side includes Delta Phi Epsilon, Theta Phi Alpha, and Gamma Sigma Sigma — with Gamma Sigma Sigma being a co-ed service sorority, so it draws a somewhat different membership than a traditional social sorority would. There's no NPHC or MGC presence listed on campus at this time.

Rush at a school this size is generally a lot more low-key than what you'd see at a big state university. You're not dealing with massive formal recruitment events with hundreds of people — it's more personal, more conversation-based. You'll likely meet members through everyday campus interactions before you ever attend a formal event.

Saint Francis doesn't have a traditional Greek Row, so don't expect chapter houses lined up along a main street. Greek organizations here tend to operate through on-campus spaces and university-affiliated housing arrangements rather than privately owned chapter houses.

Philanthropy and community service are a real part of how Greek life functions at a school with a Franciscan mission. The university's identity is built around service and community, and that tends to show up in how chapters engage with philanthropy events throughout the year. Social events happen, but service and campus involvement are a consistent thread across organizations here.
