If a student transfers from any school to any school, regardless of it's degree-granting status, they must wait one year before applying for membership. If they transfer after earning an Associates degree, by then, they are in their senior year anyway! So to transfer just to pledge is ridiculous and a waste of money if the intention is not to earn a 4-yr degree but just to pledge. Besides, we usually can figure that out if that is the case.

But lemme ask you this. If the sole intent of the prospective going from a CC/JC to a 4-year school, or a JC/CC graduate enrolling in a 4-year school was just to pledge, wouldn't that raise up red flags with you and your chapter sorors? I know that BGLO members strongly discourage students transferring schools solely to pledge. One BGLO website said that should a student do such a thing, they have a lot of soul-searching to do b/c at best they are unsure of the real reason why they are in college.
What does that tell a JC/CC grad who already got it together that does not need a 4-year degree? That it's okay to circumvent the purpose to attend college just to meet a membership criteria? That a 2-year degree is a trivial achievement in the eyes of your fellow frat/sorors, and your founders? Or more to the point, that a 2-year degree just isn't good enough to join?
Hey, I'm just, as these young folx say, "keepin' it real".
Again, please do not beg my questions, but answer them as honestly as you can.
