This is a mini-hijack but as a special education teacher I know that colleges are supposed to help students with disabilitites. I don't know if you have done this, but let your college know. Your LD doesn't disappear the moment you graduate HS. They legally have to "work" with you.
Here is a link to the US Dept. of Ed., it's a link to information on transitioning to college and what universities and students are responsible for.

End my mini-hijack.
As for informal, depending on if the university does it or not (I say that because all the chapters might have reached total in the fall), it is much more laid back. There are rules during formal that they don't have to follow during informal. I went through informal. Basically my university had a general meeting at the MU for all those interested in rushing. All the chapters who were rushing where there with "booths". We got to check them out and then go to the houses we saw fit. They did stress that we could leave each house whenever we wanted and go to another one.
When I was at ASU the sororities doing spring would put tables on the mall and girls as they were walking by, would stop and possibly sign up for the rush event (or they would just get the info and show up).
At U of A our informal events, that I did as a member, were held at the house or at a mom and pops pizza parlor. The first couple were "non-threatening actitivies on nuetral ground". LOL.
Good luck with recruitment, your grades and your transfer!!!!!!
