Of course what's done is done and I'm just going to keep my fingers crossed for rush week and hope my GPA is high enough (it WILL be a 3.0 by the time I rush) and I'll continue to raise it throughout college again so I can accomplish my dream of being a vet. 
It's strange though, I was talking to one of my friends at UF and she was able to get a bid with a 2.8. If she can get a bid with a 2.8 at an SEC school, then I'm sure my school won't make such harsh grade cuts during rush week. |
I'm sorry such bad things happened to you. I think you should work on your grades and getting back at school and worry about sorority life later if you are still interested.
Comparing people and schools and GPAs is not productive. Every single situation is different. You won't know until you try but make sure you can take it emotionally if things don't end up how you hope.
