I am not the expert on U of A recruitment but from looking at their booklet for 2012 recruitment it appears that the minimum requirement is a 3.0 for every Chapter currently on campus. The campus that I volunteer at also does not take weighted GPA's for recruitment or college admission.

VERY few if any Chapters at U of A do spring recruitment. I heard that this year there were several "top tiered" Chapters that picked up girls but it was very hush hush and was done secretively. For some reason spring recruitment seems to have a stigma associated with it down at U of A. There is no formal process for spring recruitment. Fall recruitment is so huge at U of A that most of the Chapters will be at or way above total after recruitment. They will not recruit for the rest of the year.

I would send in your senior grades to Pan and follow up on it prior to recruitment starting. I would also attach your transcripts to your recommendation forms. If your forms have already been sent I would send your transcripts to the addresses listed with a note so they can be matched up with your recommendations. I have heard in the past U of A only takes grades 9-11. My advice would be not to wait until spring and not wait until your sophomore year. U of A is VERY competitive and although I have known sophomores who have gone through and gotten bids to their #1 choice they were also living with several Chapter members and very well known in those Chapters.

Good luck to you.
