Transfering, but they have the same sorority
 

I really what to be in ABC sorority its a NPC sorority. However, I will have to transfer schools cause they don't have the grad degree here that I want. The school that I want to go to though has the same ABC sorority. Would I still be able to be a part of it if I had to transfer? Is there a process I would have to go through?

I hope this question hasn't been asked before. I tried to look around for the answer, but I couldn't find it. So I apologize ahead of time if this has been asked before.

Why are you worried about the school having a graduate degree program as an undergrad?

Because I have to with the job I want. I want to be a libriain or a musuem curator and you have to have a graduate degree to just get a job. You can't just have a bacholor's degree.

Are you an upperclassman, simply going to another school for your graduate degree? If that’s the case, many NPCs won’t allow you to participate as an active member of a collegiate chapter while in graduate school. Therefore, go through recruitment at your current school if you can (although I wouldn't advise doing so if you're a senior, as many chapters won't even consider you since you'd be initiated and then immediately be leaving school).

…Or are you a bit younger, and transferring as an undergrad? If so, if you join an NPC at your current school, there is no guarantee that you’ll be accepted into the chapter at your new school. The members of the new chapter would have to meet you, and would then need to vote you in to be active in their chapter (from what I understand to be the case with most, if not all, NPC organizations). Otherwise, you would just be deemed an alumna member.

But if this is the case with you, you probably shouldn’t join the sorority on your campus if you know you’re going to transfer (unless you’re perfectly happy leaving and being an alumna member). Because part of joining a sorority is getting along with the girls that are in your chapter, on your campus. If you join at the campus you’re currently attending and love the girls there, but then transfer thinking that it’s going to be exactly the same at the other school, you’d be wrong. Every chapter of every sorority is different. Therefore, if you know you’re going to transfer, I would advise waiting to participate in recruitment until you arrive at your new school.

OK, but why can't you just apply for a school with that degree program after you finish undergrad? Unless there are other reasons that you want to transfer.

Thank you so much for the help
I really appreciate it.
I am definitly going to have to decide.

right!

i'm a librarian and my undergrad and graduate institutions had nothing to do with each other. i loved (loved loved) undergrad and they *did* have a library science / i-school / whatever its' being called now, but i wouldn't have stayed there for undergrad AND grad.

I'm am thinking about that. I just wanted to know about it for when the time came.

^^ So what year are you in? Semester standing? And are you simply looking into grad schools for after you graduate? I'm confused as to what you're thinking about doing.

Freshman will be going into 2nd semester. I am thinking and planning ahead for the day cause the GPA requirement is insane. I will be going to a big university for my graduate because I found out they are accredited in the program their and that it is a really good one.

So if you're a freshmen who's not transferring, why is there even a question as to whether you should go through recruitment now?

Getting your bachelor's degree from one institution and your master's from another is not transferring.If the GPA requirement really is that "insane," I would suggest focusing on your studies.

I'd say she'd have to go back to basics with spelling and grammar.

I'm a LIBRARIAN and that post made me cringe. I've seen liberrian, but never libriain.

Either way, I don't know why this thread was made in the first place. And I'm confused by every post she's made, including the original one. None of them make sense (with regards to spelling, grammar and content), and none of them have anything to do with what she was originally inquiring about (even though the original post didn't really make sense at all).
