But be warned, I have been looking into it myself, reading the forum, going to HQ websites, and this process has taken some a matter of months, but it has taken others up to 5 years. It is not for the weak of heart. Make sure it is something you really want.

If you would like, since people don't really like posting them on threads, you can PM me and I could tell you the couple of chapters that do sometimes accept grad student members, that way you could see if they are on your campus and focus on them.

The names of the sororities whose policies allow them to extend bids to grad students are actually in the thread I posted. It's no secret. However, I feel like it needs to be repeated that just because they are allowed, does not mean that they have to bid every grad student who shows interest.

I also feel as though it needs to be mentioned that AI is not the solution for not having pledged an NPC in college. Every woman who didn't pledge in college is not qualified to be an alumna initiate of an NPC sorority. Generally speaking, AI is the exception, and not the rule when it comes to joining an NPC.

Just because someone didn't join in college for whatever reason, doesn't mean they get to be an AI. There is alot more to it. I don't think this can be said enough.
