Unhappy Can a junior transfur still be concidered for recruitment?

Hi! I go to our local community college, I will be starting at UCSC next fall as a junior transfer, can I still rush even though I am what the adviser has deemed "old" for the average UC student? (I'm 24, in September) Also, I have a dog, is that ok? I want to experience this part of student life, but can I if I'm old and dog friendly?

Your dog will not be allowed to live in a sorority house, if that's what you're asking. Unless it's an extraordinarily laid back house.

I know when I got my dog, they made me give up my membership. True story, except not really.

Maybe that's why she is a transFUR.

We have a Kappa from UC Santa Cruz on GC. She could probably give you insight on the campus norms.

Curse you, 33girl! You stole my line.

Does the UCSC admissions process not have a minimum requirement for the ability to write in the English language?

I wasn't aware UCSC had sorority housing.

Yup, I'm a UCSC transplant.

I don't believe UCSC does have sorority housing, which, in theory, would eliminate the dog problem.

Yes, a Junior transfer can still be considered for recruitment. I know we've accepted them before since they can still be valuable assets to our chapter.

UCSC doesn't have Greek housing so your dog can just chill at your house with no problems.

Be sure to check out the OPERS Fair in the fall to meet representatives from all of the Greek orgs as well as many other campus clubs. That's when we do the most recruitment, so you'll surely see a ton of girls representing Panhellenic (Kappa Kappa Gamma and Gamma Phi Beta). This event is a few days before fall classes start.

I'm the Membership Chair for Kappa, so feel free to PM me if you have any more questions.
