I am senior in Electrical Engineering and although I am an alum now (due to family reasons) being an engineer and in a sorority is not as hard as some might make it out to be. It all depends on how one can handle their time and their school life from your social life. I was one of 3 EE in my chapter so I had help with some of my homework. One thing that really helped me was living my the sorority house. I didn't have to drive far if I was going to stay in the lab or study hall late.


Studying is a big part in the success of school but sometimes you might want to take a break from always studying and hang out with your friends. However their are time in which some girls in the sorority might want to hang out but you will have to do homework and they do not understand that having like 5 problem can take a couple of hours. Also their will be some other engineers that might feel that being in a sorority is a waste of time. Its not. Its one of the best things I did. A lot of my engineering friend always like to give me a hard time about being in a sorority but I never really paid much attention to them.

Not sure how it works at the school you will be going to but at NMSU you could start your engineering classes once you had the math requirements (Calc I). I always like to mix my engineering classes with my gen. ed. classes or with my Spanish classes (with is my minor)
