I can't speak for the other chapters on campus, only for ADPi. We don't require transcripts but appreciate it when they're sent along with a resume. The biggest reason is sadly PNM's have been known to lie on their Recruitment registration. One year I remember a PNM "rounded up" her 2.75 to a 3.0 on her registration. Someone who wrote her a Rec included a transcript. But as Little E also pointed out, it can also show if you took basic, honors or AP classes which we can then take into consideration.

RecentASAalum stated that a PNM must have had good enough grades to get into the University, but that doesn't really say too much. Depending on which College/major you were accepted into the minimum GPA for acceptance varies dramatically.

Recruitment at Bama is very competitive. Last year we had nearly 1,000 women go through with quota at 58. Rivalry amongst the sororites for scholarship is just as competitive, so most houses continue to up their minimum GPA for new members. The logic is that if these women could achieve these high GPA's in HS, then they should be able to continue this in college.
