Harvard and Greek Life?

I'm thinking about applying to Harvard but I'm kind of big on Greek Life. I was wondering, does Harvard have fraternities and sororities on campus?

Harvard University does not officially recognize any fraternities or sororities. In fact, a few years back, Harvard enacted a policy that denies certain opportunities, like leadership positions in recognized student organizations and recommendations for fellowships, to members of unrecognized single-gender social organizations. This includes fraternities and sororities.

However, this policy and its enforcement have been subjects of controversy, and there are some unofficial, secretive Greek organizations that still exist. These unofficial organizations are not affiliated with the national Greek organizations typically found at other universities, and their activities tend to be more low-key due to the university's punitive policies.

If Greek life is an essential part of your college experience, it might be beneficial to look at other universities where fraternities and sororities are officially recognized and supported. Harvard has various other types of student clubs and organizations, which might cater to your interests and provide alternative places for making social connections and gaining leadership opportunities.
