Rush Myths:

Myth #1: I need to attend UBC to join AE&Pi.
No! We have members from all over the Greater Vancouver Area, including BCIT, Langara, Kwantlen and more. If you live nearby and are a post-secondary undergraduate student, you are eligible to rush AEΠ!

Myth #2: I will be hazed.
No! Not only is hazing illegal, but both AEPi and UBC have a zero-tolerance policy for hazing. Our chapter has never had a hazing incident in it's entire history. Our foremost interest is to build a strong brotherhood built on the foundation of mutual respect.

Myth #3: Frats are all about partying and I won't fit in.
No! Although we do throw amazing parties, that is only a small portion of what it means to be a brother. Whether you are into academics, sports, theatre, film, electronics, politics, travel, or a whole host of other activities, you will find brothers in AEΠ with similar interests. Not to mention that AEΠ members consistently achieve high GPA's.

Myth #4: Being a brother in a fraternity is expensive.
No! AEΠ has oen of the lowest dues of all the fraternities on campus and these fees all go back to the brothers in the form of amazing parties, events, sports teams, trips, etc. The amount put in is miniscule in contrast to what comes back out. AEΠ also offers payment plans, scholarships and will never turn a member away due to financial issues.
