As we've discussed previously, the required GPA to participate differs (sometimes greatly) from the GPA that chapters actually require. The fact is that if you're up against tons of freshmen with 3.5-4.0 GPAs, you aren't going to look so hot if your college GPA is a 2.5 or anything in that area... I would think that to be considered competitive against those girls who'll be paying dues for four years who also have excellent high school GPAs, an upperclassman PNM would need really stellar grades (3.5+) or really good grades (3.0+) coupled with lots of involvement on campus.
I agree with you completely. I do think she's still better off waiting, but I think you said that too. She just needs to make sure she makes some awesome grades and gets involved.
