It is based on junior hours. I know several girls went to summer school and took lots of hours so they would be classified as a jr. and not a soph. at the end of this semster. By school standards they are a jr, probably in their mind and others they are just a Soph. It a good way of getting in a sorority if you had been through rush before or didn't go through your Freshman year because you didn't make grades. You have to have a 2.5 the first semester to go through rush but most sororites want at least a 2.75. It is no secret the Tri-Delt and Chi Omega want a 3.0. They generally cut these girls after the first round of parties this GPA which is based on your first sememster and transfer grades don't count. Ex summer school at a jr. college. At Baylor you can't even be a cheerleader until you have completed 12 hours with a 2.5
Same applies to fraternities. It was a big topic of discussion at my house during Christmas who did and didn't make grades.
