I graduated from Wake a few years ago.
Sophomore rush changed a lot when I was there.
Remember that not all the chapters will be giving out bid depending on how many spots they have open.
Your GPA may hurt your chances and might have been the reason you did not get invited back to certain chapters during spring recruitment. When you talk to the sisters stress how you are working to improve your GPA and that academics are important to you.
Go in and be yourself. Spring recruitment can be difficult because these women meet so many PNM it's hard to stick out. Let the real you shine and show these women what makes you unique and what you can offer their chapter.
If you have friends in the sororities, let them know you are rushing. Most bids in the fall are given to girls that have friends/connections in the chapter. Try to see if you can get lunch/dinner/coffee with them and some of their sisters before fall rush starts. Same goes for if you are going to rush in the spring again.
If sisters ask if you rushed in the Spring, be tactful of what you say. If you tell them you only got 1 invite and you didn't like the chapter, it's not going to sound good. Sorority women know each other and being negative about a chapter will not help your odds.

If you want more advice you can PM me.
