And as opposed to pretending to go through rush which is all the current scenario would be, at least as a sophomore she'd have a chance, slim as it might be. But I do agree that unless she is spending the summer on Mars, she needs to find a way to attend an earlier orientation. It's a very important part of the process and shouldn't be discounted.

It. Is. Not. An. "Alternative." They are a fully functioning chapter that will participate in formal recruitment this year. You don't have any experience with this school except from what you have read on the internet. Step away from the keyboard.
You have a history here of presenting groups like colonies, revitalized chapters and struggling groups as "alternatives" for PNMs who have some kind of additional hurdle to overcome. That only perpetuates stereotypes and comes off as patronizing.
