I've calculated it, and in order to get a 2.4, I have to get a 3.2 this semester.

In any case, thank you!

Believe me, I wish I had dropped the two classes I failed last semester. It would have left me with a 2.6, which I could have brought up this semester. The crazy thing? I wasn't even registered for them until two of my courses were dropped for not having the right prerequisites and my mom telling me I needed to taken them because she couldn't condone me only taking a part-time load. They were classes I wasn't interested in, but were available.

I haven't, actually. But I'm currently looking in to getting that done. I can't focus on many things anymore. I used to be an avid (YA Fiction) reader... like sit-in-one-place-while-reading-a-400+-page-book-from-start-to-finish... Heck, in 10th grade, I read the entire Breaking Dawn book in 6 hours flat... and that is 756 page book.

I can't even sit down and focus on a 3 page "story", much less a 400+ page book.

Joining a sorority, was down on my list. It wasn't even an option until a Fraternity brother who is a student at DSU said something about it. The school is small and, from what I gather, very Greek oriented. That's all that brought that to mind Which got me researching a lot about it, which lead to this forum, and this question.

That's not even something I thought about. However, I was under the impression that once you transfer you start off with a clean slate, GPA wise.

That is definitely something I will look in to.

I was only asking here, because if on the off chance that a current member of the sororities at my school (or recent graduates) were here they could be able to give school-specific info.

Thank you!

You may start off with a clean slate at the school, but sororities consider your most recent GPA if you've attended another college (whereas first semester freshman are considered on basis of their high school GPA). It appears based on the school website that any student in good standing at the school can go through recruitment, but that the three sororities may have GPA requirements above those of the school's. You can certainly give it a shot.

However, a 1.9 is very low and I really can't imagine anyone getting a bid with a GPA of that caliber. Even a 2.4 is very low.

I suggest you transfer and get a great semester of grades under your belt. Then rush. Right now your GPA is incredibly low and you can't base your GPA going into recruitment on what you "expect" you will receive this semester because there's no guarantees that you will earn those grades.

Good luck. I'd wait until my GPA was up a bit and I was acclimated to my new school in your situation. You can join other campus organizations in the meantime and meet Greeks and new friends this way. Getting involved on campus will also help you manage your time, if you truly believe that you need to have outside obligations to help you prioritize...

This is good advice. OP, I saw where you said that you were thinking of having yourself tested. I believe that scheduling the tests can take some time and then you have to wait for the results and an interpretation of the tests, so I would say get on it right away.

Disclaimer: I'm not Greek, BUUUT I know what it's like to have a low GPA and having it be because of personal issues (friends were murdered, family members died, "baby daddy" drama up the ya-ya, medical issues). No matter what, your main focus should be on school.
And yes, I know sometimes it feels if you tack on more, it's easier to manage time because you have less "free time", but I suggest joining study groups, and doing tutoring sessions first.
I am in the process of trying to raise my GPA up (right now it's about a 2.6+ which I have been working on raising from a 1.4) and hopefully this quarter I will be getting a quarter GPA of 3.75 - 4.0 (one class is right there between it being an A or a B depending on my essays) =]] Once you raise your GPA, then I would worry about Greek life.

This. My experience has been a lot like AZTheta's, to the point that I avoided taking potentially challenging classes in undergrad (that weren't required for my degree, anyway) or exploring subject areas that weren't ludicrously easy for me. I totally regret that now, especially since I had some leftover credits I could've used to broaden my experiences in these fields.

(While I am not a psychologist and am not qualified to diagnose the OP, one thing that strikes me--and convinces me that she's barking up the right tree with her seeking evaluations--is the fact that she comes off as quite intelligent in her writing, and most people with this particular disorder are very intelligent, some even geniuses, a number of my favorite composers among them. Just don't be like Beethoven and try to self-medicate with 60-beans-per-cup coffee...) :)
