I also want to mention that I'm totally new to this city and I don't know anybody from any of the fraternities so all fraternities are totally unknown to me, as I am unknown to them as well. I don't have any legacies as well. I really wonder if it will work here. This is my first semester at this school but I'm actually a junior transfer at the age of 21. I know that all these decrease my chances but again this is not a competitive southern school, instead this is a commuter cal-state school so my chances shouldn't be that bad. I'll keep you posted. I just want to be a part of greek life so any fraternity will work for me. As long as I can get a bid from anywhere I'll be fine. Since I'm not too picky my chances of getting a bid might be slightly higher. All advices are welcome!

At schools that are significantly less competetive, junior status isn't a big deal for some sororities, so it shouldn't be a problem for fraternities.
I have heard of many people in your situation and their recruitment was a success. I'm also glad to hear that you're "not picky" and that you don't have your "tops" picked out...I have known many guys that went through saying "I'm ONLY going to look at this fraternity" and their results were sometimes not so good. This way, you can check out most of them and get to see where you really click.
Good luck! Can't wait to hear your story.
