The way I see it, and I'm sure others will as well, is if you quit your previous sorority, what's going to stop you from quitting mine?
While there is that general "if you quit another one, what's going to stop you from quitting mine" feeling, I'd venture to say not everyone is like it.

When I was a freshman @ my first school I joined a local sorority b/c it was an all-local campus. A year or so later I did dissaffiliate (actually 3/4 of the chapter did all at once) but I didn't leave because I was bored with it, or I didn't like the people. I left b/c there was a lot of crazy stuff going on that didn't need to be there. When the president of a chapter fixes votes and elections, I don't know about you, but that kinda pissed me off. That doesn't have any place in a sisterhood, and I didn't want to be a part of that.

A couple of years later when I transferred to another school, I found the house for me. I was honest with them and they didn't shun me. I found a sorority that I could finally call home for life.

The same happened with all of the other girls too.. they all found NPC homes as well and they were all upfront about what happened in the past.

Granted, this is NPC, and NOT NPHC, and I know that those are very distinctly different.
