Does your college have NPC sororities only?

We had a mom pledge, who was around 30. I will tell you that she had some time commitments issues - kids getting sick, school events, etc. She did her service time and made some meetings, but as a pledge class, we did have to work harder to schedule "mandatory" meetings and events (some things had to be done with every member of the pledge class, in order to make it to initiation).

She did initiate, but soon after, became less involved, doing only what was necessary to stay active.

You may need to show that you can commit to "mandatory" meetings and such, and be available on the spur of the moment any time of day or night (that may be considered hazing now).

You also need to consider how you may feel having a 20-year old telling you "what to do", and feel silly doing some of the "less mature" activities.

Some professional GLOs may get together less frequently, and have less "mandatory" events and activities. Worst case scenario, you don't get a bid (if you are rushing NPC). If you can handle possible rejection, go ahead and do your best.

Lastly, there are non-collegiate GLOs out there.
I wish you luck in your search.
