That was my point -- that it varies from organization to organization. That's why I was responding for the purpose of clarifying to the statement that pledging is not a guarantee of full membership. In many orgs it pretty much is. Thus, it tends to vary depending on the organization and a blanket statement probably doesn't fit.

It is different with sororities -- NPC sororities, at least -- based on the
many discussions on the subject that have been had here on GC. Bottom line: as a general rule, fraternity chapters hold a second vote on a candidate prior to initiation and reserve the right to kick out or delay initiation of any pledge. NPC sororities, on the other hand, do not operate this way, and being a new member is pretty much a guarantee of being an initiated member. In other words, it varies from organization to organization, which is the idea I was trying to convey to the OP.
