I would think up a better story than "my family are anti-Greek so I couldn't take it and dropped out." That makes you look pretty wishy-washy. I'm sure you also may have disappointed some chapters when you dropped out if your rush experience was going as well as you say.

And as was stated on another thread here, no NPC sorority can be FORCED to bid pledges from a designated group (like sophomores). This would violate the confidentiality and autonomy of the sororities' membership selection policies. If there is an "upperclass quota" it may make it easier for the sororities to offer you a bid without missing out on the freshmen they want, but even if you are the only upperclassman going through, nobody HAS to take you. That's not what a sophomore/upperclass quota means.
