Would love opinions!

Hey, everyone! I'm a new member to the site, but have been on before and seen how great you all are helping everyone and I learned most of what I know now about Greek life from different posts! I'm in a confusing situation at the moment and would love to hear opinions from you all. (:

I'm a freshman at a northeast school (not a huge emphasis on greek life, but it's definitely there) and have applied to transfer to a big school in southern California with a much greater emphasis on greek life. I just went through formal recruitment at my current school (it's held in the spring) and love the sorority I ended up in! I do like the school I'm at and love the girls in the sorority I'm in, but I'm really hoping to transfer in the fall to my dream school. I just learned that the sorority I'm in currently isn't at the other school and so torn about whether or not to go through initiation in a few weeks. While I'd love to remain a sister in the chapter I'm in now, I'd hate to only get half a year of true Greek life and have to already become an alumni when the chance to rush again in the fall is available. The main issue that comes is whether or not I will for sure get into the new school. If I don't, I'd hate to wait until the spring again if I stay at the same school and overall be uncertain about whether I would as I'd only want to end up in the same sorority and don't know how something like that would go. I'd love to hear the opinions of anyone who's gone through a similar situation as I'm really torn and don't have any older mentors I could talk to that have been in a similar situation.

Thanks, everyone! (:
