Soror went DEEEEEEP into the archives... I think that the GPA should be at least a 3.0 . A 2.5 is not EVEN academic excellence. I think that if someone is such a great 2.5 candidate, she should spend a little more time at the library, and then she can be an even better candidate.
A sorority is a great thing to belong to and all, but a college student's top priority should be his or her academics.
Then again, that's just me.
