Thanks to everyone who has replied so far!
I just realized I should post what we do (Sigma Alpha Sorority).
Nationally, we don't have a requirement either way. However, one does have to have at least a 2.25 gpa, so this usually means not initiating first-semester freshman or transfers until they have their first grade report. (Our rushes are often held a bit later in the term.)
We do have local chapters who either actively recruit freshman or have them wait until the second semester to rush.
