So this week my school's sororities had recruitment week. And this is my third semester at school and my third try at pledging for a sorority. Fall 2013: Kappa Beta Gamma turned me down. Spring 2014 and Fall 2014: Delta Phi Epsilon turned me down....twice. With no explanations. I want to be in a sorority SO BAD!!! Yet no one wants me. Why can't I get a bid?!?!
And those 2 sororities are the only ones at my school. So I guess I am pretty much stuck.

We can't tell you why because we don't know. What are your grades like? Activities? How did you dress? Were you polite, have good conversations? I think oyu should go back over your qualifications and actions and assess those.
None of us can tell you why. I am sorry this didn't work out for you, as it is difficult to deal with disappointment when you are in college and handling classes, grades and being away from home. Maybe your eagerness was a little too evident, maybe you met actives you didn't hit it off with due to the luck of the draw, maybe it was just a numbers thing. Get involved in something new...a club, study group, philanthropy and keep busy. Good luck!
At small schools with small Greek systems and small chapters, there isn't a place for everyone. You would be far more miserable if you got a bid and didn't fit in than you are now.
As others have said, get involved in other things on campus.
