I don't know how traditional UNT is in the aspect of taking on older students.

I would tend to think that it's worth a shot. Of course, I don't know if you'll get a bid, but it is worth trying.

DO consider your personality and think about whether you are in a place to spend a great deal of time around 18/19 year olds at your age. That's not everyone's cup of tea. Example: by the time I was 22, I was in grad school and would've pulled my hair out if I'd had to be a NM again at that age because I was in a different place than say, a freshman. Everyone's different though.

It's good to consider that because sometimes, at other schools, chapters go out on a limb to pledge Miss Older Transfer who then decides "I'm too old/busy to commit to all this stuff" and quits, becoming a waste of a bid. Seriously consider whether you can make the time commitment before deciding.

Good luck to you!
