There is no such thing as no minimum GPA. Just because your school doesn't have a minimum GPA to go through recruitment doesn't mean you're eligible to receive a bid from any of the sororities. All sororities have a required minimum GPA on the national level as well as the local chapter level. The chapter level is usually significantly higher than the national level. Unfortunately your GPA is quite low and one calculus class in four semesters is not going to be the only factor that made it that way.
Additionally, being a junior/transfer is a significant recruitment handicap at many schools. Even at schools with upper classman quotas or that regularly give bids to juniors, your GPA will still make you an unattractive grade risk to the sororities. I would suggest you hit the books and establish a decent GPA at your school before attempting recruitment. Based on your past academic record, the demands of a sorority may place an additional strain on your academic goals. Give yourself a chance to adjust to your new school and work at the real goal of college: an education.
