At NJ Tech we have to keep above 2.0 in order to be on good academic standing with the university. 2.0 is not that hard to maintain at all, even for an engineering/architecture/computer science/ university.

Our IFSC requires 2.2 (which is still quite low) If your average falls below then the organization is put on poor standing and eventually if it isn't brought up- probationary status.

Sigma Psi Kappa (we're local) requires a GPA of 2.4 to remain an active member. If any sister's GPA is above but very close to 2.4 the sisters is strongly advised to attend weekly study hours to improve her grades. Anything between 2.0 and 2.4 results in sisters automatically put on academic probation with the sorority for one semester....if it's not raised then she must go inactive until she is able to pull her grades above 2.4.

Yes being part of a Greek Organization is supposed to be fun...but we're in college to get an education and graduate with a degree worth something. Connections from alumni mean nothing if you have a below average GPA. No alum is going to recomend someone that did not do well in college.

but congratulations on 3.4!! that's pretty good! Last year my sorority earned the Highest GPA award for Sororities...but I have no idea what our average was.
