I think they are giving you advice. The chapter of your sorority at your current school knows who you are. They know you are claiming to be an XYZ. If you rerush, they will surely think a) you are a psycho liar trying to sneak into their sorority or b) you have no loyalty all because of a paperwork snafu. Neither option is pretty. There is also the very real possibility that they will share this information with HQ and the other chapters on campus. It would probably not be in your best interest to go through recruitment. I know it's not what you obviously want to here. My advice would be to call HQ and ask for the chapter advisor for your initiating chapter. Contact this woman and explain your situation as calmly as possible. You'll get a lot farther if you sound rational and understanding about the paperwork mistakes. Just impress on her that you'd really like to get involved with the chapter at your new school. Then.....give her some time to help you. Just because you have a timeline does not mean that it matches hers. Tell your Mom that you are handling the situation. She's probably upset because you are upset. Take a deep breath...things will work out!
