I'm not familiar with Ole Miss, but I think you need to ask yourself some questions before you decide to go through recruitment.

Why do you want to be in a sorority? You need to be able to answer this clearly if you're going to convince chapter members to invite you back. They need to know why you haven't gone through before, and "I was off campus" or "my parents wouldn't pay for it" probably won't impress them.

Are you ready for the financial commitment? My guess is that Ole Miss dues are not cheap.

Have you been involved on campus and know a lot of people? Do you know sorority members that will pull for you?

Are your grades well above the sorority average? Bad GPA=Automatic Cut

Do you have sorority alumnae on your speed dial that will write you recommendations asap? Do you have transcripts/resumes/pictures ready to send to the chapter? These are listed as requirements for membership on several chapter sites.

I say it never hurts to go through if your goal is to meet people and possibly find a home. If your anwer to the last four questions are "yes" then you may have a good shot. Good luck!
