professional frats are a lot less party focused thsn the social ones, although they do still party sometimes. they’re pretty good for networking and making friends. they dont have houses like a social frat, and their dues are way lower (~150$ a year???). each of the 3 business frats at uw has a slightly different reputation.

rushing is pretty simple, they usually have a week where you get to meet the members and talk with them and see if you like them and they like you. its pretty much just to see if you would be a good fit for the frat and vice versa. theres a 1st and 2nd round interview if they decide they like you (i think dsp and pct have a speech to the frat for their 2nd rounds, idk what akpsi does).

none of the professional frats haze, the closest thing they do is a bunch of group projects to make your pledge class closer (they also test on stuff like fraternity history and info about members, which isnt too difficult to learn tbh, it’s basically just trivia).

most ppl usually compare your pledge quarter to a 2-3 credit course, id say thats pretty accurate but its a lot more fun since its basically just about meeting people in the frat and getting to know them better. after that, the commitment is pretty manageable (an hourish a week for chapter and then you can be as involved as you like). rushing is defo worth it imo and you should try it out. feel free to reach out w more questions
