Arrow Here's the deal

As a former Graduate Advisor here is what I saw:

No matter how often it was told to undergraduate interests, the exact order of the correct documents were NOT presented to the screeners at the time rush...

Moreover, classes that were below 100 level for semester universities, are NOT considered FULL TIME CREDIT EARNING HOURS--hence the applicant may have been taking 4 classes, but if these classes were below 100 level courses--or remedial courses--and they were not at the same school--'cuz some applicants attend a junior college at the same time when they attend a 4 year university, then basically, the applicant could not be admitted for membership into Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.

Kids are going to school all kinna ways now. It is not just that traditional U of whatever anymore. Many more creative curriculums now... Whether or not these changes can be made to understand student difficulty while not reducing an organizations prestige--because that is what maintaining the 501c4 status means, will be tough to reconcile.
