If this is a competitive school, the likelihood of this happening is probably low. |

While it is quite possible that you'll get cut hard early, there may be a few chapters willing to look past some bad grades. Just remember that it's most likely not a personal reason if you do get cut hard early on. Keep smiling and enjoy the experience! Good luck! :) |

I know last year in my chapter, which has a minimum GPA requirement just a tad below a 3.0, all girls deemed to be an "academic risk" were cut just before Preference round. Sadly, I believe most chapters at competitive schools will be able to also exercise such an option due to the larger pool of PNMs. But, we also did look at if it was high school gpa vs transfer gpa in many cases. I'm not saying the doors are shut to you in any way, just make sure you lat yourself shine past the gpa issue - if it ends up being one.

Thanks everyone! Next time I post will be my recruitment story, so sit tight and I'll post it up live in a month or two :D (i finally figured out how to do proper smiley faces haha) (and Im not giving a specific timeframe just in case ;) )

Seriously. You just need to relax about this. There's nothing you can do about it or hope for. Just go through recruitment and concentrate on being yourself. I'm trying not to be a Debbie Downer about it, but this is a situation that's very cut and dry. |
Right. Just chill about the GPA thing because you can't change it at this moment.
At least you know one thing you need to improve upon during the coming semesters - bid or no bid. You can focus on your GPA when there's actually something you can DO about it. |
I'm still wondering if some of the chapters at her school will have different gpa minimums for college students vs incoming freshmen. It does happen at some chapters. This may be a loophole for her...but I do not know specifically.

I really wouldn't want to give her, or anyone else in her position, the hope that there might be some "secret" other minimum gpa that could apply to her circumstances. This is the sec we're talking about, not a non-competitive school where there may be more factors that can come into play. For every Lucy Lowgpa, there are hundreds of Tiffany Threepointnines to chose from. If things turn out differently, then that would be a great surprise for her. But I think it's prudent to be prepared for the worst. |
At my non-competitive, dirty and disgusting deferred recruitment school (ptew ptew), I don't think I ever once saw any grade exceptions made.
