I might transfer after Freshman year but I am just not sure about living away from home! U. Tenn definitely has larger chapters but I know I will be bored at U. Memphis not joining anything. I would love to be part of my moms but most of my friends join ADPi so I would love to be their sister also. I could affiliate at U. Tenn also when I transfer and still be a part of a sorority! There is really pros and cons on both sides so I am torn. If anyone has gone through this and can share their stories please do! So ladies, my question is should I join now with my friends or hold out for my mom?

How about you try recruitment and see for yourself where you fit in? Stop trying to fit the mold of your Mom or your friend's organizations. You might like in one of their oganizations, you may not and find a home somewhere else.
Same with the college, if you like it at Memphis stay there. Don't go somewhere or do something JUST because your parents told you too (they are great for advice tho, and what they think should be kept in mind) but ultimately its your decision.
Sorry if i came across as snappy/harsh in my post. thats def. not what i wanted to convey.
