I'm not saying this in terms of the sorority thing because I don't know how important it is in the long term, but are you sure you need to take a semester off to be with your boyfriend? If he is that big a part of your life that you'd postpone your education for him, why wouldn't you choose to attend college closer to him to begin with?
ETA: Reading this hours later, I realize that I'm really overstepping with my second paragraph, but what you've said here and what you said in the GPA thread made me think that you might not be making the best systematic decisions about your education. I know it's none of my business, but doing things the way that you've described is really limiting your options and if you take a semester off because of the boyfriend's return, you may be compromising joining a GLO if that's really important to you.

It's ok, your not overstepping. Its a legit question given what limited information you have on me. I'm not really taking a semester off, I'm going to school here. I'm just not transferring down to USA in the fall, because I haven't seen my boyfriend in a year, and he won't be coming home until the beginning of August. Right when you need to be transferring down to go through formal rush and all that (as I've read on their site, they have a mother/daughter event August 11th...*ha, my bf's birthday*) to introduce them to campus life and all. I want to be able to spend time with him, but I'm not throwing off education for it. I'm just not transferring until Spring. Still going to school
Thanks for the explanation of COB, have been wondering. And for the really great responses in both threads as well as the re-read of your reply to this. As said before, your not overstepping, but I thank you for the kind reply
