The only problem is I live in Brooklyn, and there's a chapter there also. The chapter isn't at any of the schools in Brooklyn. I know it sounds kind of weird. But my question is, Where the heck should I pledge? Where I live in Brooklyn? or where i'm going to school at in Manhattan? Help me plz!!
You may not be considered for membership at sorority chapters that are not at your school. You should go through sorority recruitment at your school and see what the sororities at your school have to offer. You are not eligible to join a National Panhellenic Sorority that is not at your college.

If there are no sororities at your school, look into other campus life opportunities. There may be women's-only organizations, faith-based fellowship circles, or another organization you might enjoy. Whether or not you pledge a sorority, get involved on campus. It's a great way to make friends and discover new interests. Another option is to speak with the dean of student affairs about starting Greek Life at your college. This can be a difficulty, long and lengthy process, however.

Good luck. You can't join a sorority that doesn't exist at your school, even if there are other chapters of it in your neighborhood or at other schools in your area. Membership is restricted to full-time enrolled students at those schools. But you should have some options on your campus to find an activity you will enjoy.
