That would depend on your organization. Depending on your fraternity/sorority, affiliating with a new chapter may not be a sure thing.

There are some organizations whose chapters do not automatically accept transfers.

There are also some chapters (typically large ones) of some fraternties/sororities who do not take transfer affiliates at all because their chapter is one that has alot of people trying to transfer in and they don't have room (I remember hearing this about some chapters at UF).

We had a girl in our house try to transfer to UF and it didnt work for some reason, but she still transfered to UF.

was she an instate transfer or from out of state?

Exactly what I was thinking. Chapters of the same sorority have a different personality on different campuses.

Absolutely. My sister (three years behind me in school) joined the same GLO as I did at a different school expecting the chapters to be similar. The chapters were as different as the schools (Carnegie-Mellon (urban tech school) and Slippery Rock (2nd tier PA State school, formerly a teachers college).
