DE-Pledging: Should I?

I'm currently a sophomore student at Cornell University. I'm transferred to Cornell in the Fall of 2006 and did Spring Rush this past January. I'm currently in the process of pledging a fraternity on campus but I am not liking it very much and I am considering de-pledging. I don't feel close to anyone in the house or my pledge class, the house itself is pretty run down and in bad condition, our mixers haven't been great, and I don't feel connected to the people or the house in general which is most important. Most of my friends who are pledging now absolutely LOVE their houses and I do not feel like this whatsoever. The problem with de-pledging however involves a couple of things. I have canceled my on-campus housing for next year and so if I de-pledge I will need to find a place to live off-campus next semester. Secondly, being that I am a sophomore now and will be a junior next year, I will have a difficult time finding a house to accept me during Fall Rush. Cornell holds a Fall Rush specifically for sophomores and upperclassmen, however the only houses that participate are those houses who did not reach their quotas and are very low on the social ladder. The chance of a junior getting a bid is extremely low however it isn't impossible. I honestly don't know what to do. I've put a lot of time, effort, and have gone through hazing for this current house and I don't know what I should do. Any advice would be great? Thanks.
