Background info:
Campus: small, southern, private liberal arts. Seems like most everyone is greek here.
I was a transfer and I'll be a junior this fall semester. I live off campus and I admittedly haven't been social because
a) i'm shy
b) it's my boyfriend's last semester in the state before HE transfers and i didn't want to miss out on this time.
c) i've been trying to deal with the new workload, so i haven't even tried to attend events or anything. i purposely haven't gotten involved because i really wasn't sure i could handle it.

But I can, and more importantly - I want to. Even if it's not greek, I am going to be a part of as many things as possible from now until I leave (which wont be until late 2012/2013).

My question is this:
Is it worth even trying to go through recruitment? I've always wanted to be part of a sorority, and honestly if I'd known that transferring late would have affected it - I would have done so much earlier.

I just don't want to apply for recruitment and feel ridiculous. I'm shy and honestly it takes a few times for me to feel comfortable with people. But once I am, I have no problems.

this campus has phi mu, chi omega, tri delta and kappa delta.
The only person who can determine whether something is "worth trying" is YOU.

I don't know what school this is, so I am unsure of how competitive it is for juniors and transfers.

Honestly though, it is worth a try if it is something you're interested in. You won't know WHAT will happen unless you give it a shot.

You may get a bid, you may not, but at least you tried.
