Re: Rushing as a transfer student...

I am now here at my new school taking summer classes (i'm actually living in one of the sorority dorms--I'm on the Sigma Kappa floor hehe) so I would have a GPA here to start in the fall..I didnt really need the credits per se, but I wasn't familiar with the area too much and I wanted to get a couple classes under my belt and meet some people so the transitional blow come fall isn't rediculously insane! lol. What is the deal with transfer students and rushing? Any advice would be great! (going to be a junior technically...but I will more than likely be here for 3 years instead of 2.


Thanks for your help! 2Fast2Furious comes out today woohoo!!
I think this really varies from school to school. For rushees, my chapter looks at their HS grades if they are a freshman, their grades from their last school if they transferred, and their college grades otherwise. I know other schools make transfer students have a GPA at that school, and more make ALL Students have a GPA at that school (hence deferred recruitment).

You could ask the Greek Life Advisor or one of the SKs about that - I'm sure they would know the campus specific situation.
