Again, like some people have already said, it depends on the sorority. At some schools, it gets progressively harder to join as you get older. At some (like mine) most groups will take maybe 1-2 sophomores because they count in regular quota, but they will take 5-6 juniors because that is a different quota. Those sophomores were usually ones who for some reason didn't end up in XYZ sorority (the one they wanted and ended up in as a sophomore...maybe got cross cut) so the next year XYZ made sure to pick them up. That happened a lot where I went. The suggestion was made to ask for last year's rush statistics, and I think that is a good idea. Maybe you could see on average what level (freshmen, soph, jun, etc) pledges were and their grades and all of that. That will probably give you a better idea than we can. GOOD LUCK!! I hope it goes awesome for you.
