Well Maybe I should start by saying that I am not now at a school as I have attained my bachelors degree and am an Active and Financial Member of an Alumni Chapter. What I find is that both undergraduate and graduates alike are interested in various sororities or fraternities and some not all members act as if they are so high and mighty they make themselves unapproachable. This post was simply meant to allow any ladies aspiring to become apart of my illustrious organization, an opportunity to obtain (non privlidged) information through this forum.
Hope this answers you question.

Hello all! I am an aspirant of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Incorporated. I am, what you might consider, a "newbie" to GreekChat as well, so please bear with me, as I am sure some variance of this has been posted before.

I grew up in an area that didn't really have a lot of African-Americans, as well as was a first generation college student, so I didn't have much experience with BGLOs or Greek life in general until my sophomore year of college, when I began researching the Divine Nine. As I completed my research, I became interested in Sigma Gamma Rho, and acquainted myself with the members of the sorority on my campus. Although I wanted to pursue membership in undergrad, I was also in a tough situation where I was working two jobs, interning, and taking a full load of classes while applying for post-graduate opportunities, so I didn't think it would be the best time to dedicate myself to a MIP, if invited. However, now that I have graduated and am on more solid footing with my finances, I have realized that my dream of serving my community through this organization has not died. I would love to pursue membership in an alumnae chapter.

I will have the opportunity of attending an alumnae interest meeting soon, and I respectfully ask for any advice or tips on this - I have only attended undergraduate chapter interest meetings, and I am wondering, if there is a different protocol or anything I should expect? I want to be as prepared as possible. In addition, if possible, can anyone highlight differences between pursuing alumnae and undergraduate membership? I understand if these cannot be provided, and thank you all for your time!

:)

Good morning ladies of Sigma Gamma Rho. I'm an aspirant as well. I've actually been interested in the sorority since 2009. I recently moved from Louisiana to Tacoma, Washington, and have been interacting with members here. I'm going to some events this weekend and was invited to the informal rush at the end of the month. Any advice going forward?
