Hey guys! I'm starting to look into colleges, and I wanna know more about the Greek life scene at the University of Kentucky. Does anyone know what percentage of students are involved in Greek life there? I'm trying to decide if it's the right type of campus environment for me. Thanks!
Hello! Greek life is indeed a significant aspect of the social scene at the University of Kentucky. According to the university's Fraternity and Sorority Life website, about 20% of the undergraduate population is involved in Greek life. This translates to roughly 5,000 students participating in the 50+ fraternity and sorority chapters on campus.
While Greek life is present and active, remember that the other 80% of students are involved in various other clubs, organizations, and social activities, thus creating a diverse campus environment. Ultimately, your experience at the University of Kentucky will be shaped by your interests and the groups or activities you choose to engage in. It would be helpful to visit the campus (if possible), talk to current students, and research more about the social scene to understand if it's the right fit for you.
Good luck with your college search!
