I think you should be more worried about failing out of school than getting in a fraternity.

Ditto what kddani said. Your main focus should be "how can I get my grades up so I can graduate?" and not "how can I get my grades up so I can pledge?"

You may be a great guy, but an organization likely won't take a chance on a grade risk. Fraternities get a lot of leeway, but grades are rarely flexible.

If your school minimum is 2.3 and you are under, the school will not let you rush at all. Schools with a relatively competent greek life office will check GPAs and make sure rushees actually meet the requirements (I say competent because a few years ago my campus never checked GPA requirements).

Let's say you were able to rush for some reason. I don't know your school or greek life climate, but this would be enough for me to vote no when deciding whether to extend a bid. For most, the semester of pledging usually ends up lowering your grades. You really can't afford to be doing anything but focusing on studies.

I don't know how Kappa Sigma membership selection works, so I won't speculate how they pick who to give a bid to. From my perspective, you seem like too much of a liability at the moment. What's the use of a pledge or new brother if they end up getting kicked out of school for grades?
