Pledging is a structured period where prospective members learn about the fraternity’s history, values, and traditions while developing leadership, professional, and networking skills. It’s also an opportunity to build meaningful connections with fellow pledges and brothers before becoming fully initiated. 

There is absolutely NO Hazing of any kind and if you are ever uncomfortable tell a brother or the health and safety officer. 

Our pledging process abides entirely in accordance to the national organization's regulations.

Pledging with AXS Beta Sigma is a semester-long process and is open to all RIT students who have taken a college chemistry class. 

You do not need to be a chemistry major or a master chemist to pledge — the only requirements are commitment and interest. 

While a lot of fun, the pledging process is intensive, and prospective pledges are warned that the process has a workload roughly on par with a three-credit course.
