They didn't tell me which ones, though. I am super interested in Alpha Gamma Delta, but can't seem to get in touch with anyone to tell me if AGD accepts married women. I really hate to go through rush and pay an application fee if none of the sororities will accept me. Does anyone know if Alpha Gamma Delta accepts married women? Thanks!
A few things...

1.) I don't know that any of the NPC sororities currently have national policies on whether or not married woman can join. I do know, however, that some used to, but that they were done away with years ago.

2.) If the individual chapters on your campus choose not to take married women, I don't know why the Greek life office would know that.

But either way you look at it...

3.) NPC recruitment is supposed to allow you to look at ALL of the sororities on campus. If you make the decision to go through recruitment, it should be because you want to find the best sorority for you, and not to just aim for Alpha Gamma Delta. If you do, you might be disappointed if those girls choose not to give you a bid, and another chapter who loved you and wanted to extend you one, wasn't even given a chance.

4.) The decision to go through recruitment is yours. But if you think by not going through, that you'll regret the decision because you didn't want to pay the application fee, I say just do it. Otherwise, you'll always wonder "what if?"
