I guess you could try the AI route, but why bother?
Generally AI is offered to people already intimatelyy invovled with a specific chapter for whatever reason, kind of a recognition of contribution. Or sometimes AI is offered because you are friends or close with a bunch of alums in an alumnae association and they want to make you a member, again a recognition of contribution.
Or there is initiation for purely honorary reasons, your reputation or service.
In your case thoug,h you are not likely to find the close personal relationships you seem to be seeking. Historically white GLO's are basically college focused undergrad/grad and offer very little in terms for post grads in the sense of the GLO experience: The bond made through constant social interaction and shared projects.
If you are a natural joiner then you may want to consider the advice of the others and look into other organizations.
Also, you should not jump to the conclusion that your age was the primary factor in your elimination. I have heard of many people your age or older successfully getting bids.

I am not saying I am going to transfer and try again at another school. If I transfer I am staying away from greek life, 25 was a stretch for me, but rushing at 26, well that's just closer to 30 than 18. This school in general frusterates me! Post bacs are not permitted to join anything or do anything. It's a bunch of crap. If I can't join a club, greek or not, then I don't know why I have to continue paying the student activity fee. I went to school here as an undergrad and it just sucks because I have so many memories. It is hard going back. I dont know anyone, I thought going greek would help and would keep me here. Before I even rushed I thought about transferring, but then thought if I join a sorority, that would be reason to stay. Right now, i have no reason to stay.
But I am interested in looking into AI. Can someone tell me more about it? Thanks.
