[MTSUGURL]

When I rushed at my previous university, I knew nothing about sororities. I didn't know there was an emphasis on GPA; I didn't even know there was a required GPA. I didn't even know until after rush that I would not have even been able to join anything because of my GPA. I would have been crushed if I had signed my bid card and had not received a bid, only to find out that I didn't have the GPA requirement. (I didn't sign a bid card.)
At MTSU, the minimum to rush is 2.5. That is the minimum for at least 2 sororities - I don't know what the others are. I know one is lower, but I chalk it up to they are giving you a lesser chance to be cut because of grades by setting it higher than the bare minimum. I would think that would cut back on the disappointment that some may experience by being cut heavily for no reason other than grades.
