All a PNM can do is be prepared. I encourage LSU182 to give it a try. I can tell that the poster has seen how active and fun Greek life is at LSU. She can always drop out if she is unhappy with her choices and benefit other organizations on campus.
I say go for it!
Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

I think this is sound advice that can go for every PNM, especially "nontraditional" (upperclasswomen, transfers, etc) ones. You might want to do a little extra soul searching and make sure to thicken your skin a little bit if you know your class standing/GPA/whatever may work against you, but you'll never know unless you try. I bet there are tons of women out there that would have found a wonderful sorority but didn't rush out of fear of rejection. I think it's worse to always have a "what if" instead of knowing for sure -- no matter what the result.
