NPC sororities have no rules against taking women who were once in locals, but it is up to the individual chapter who they choose for membership. I see no harm in trying.

Umm do you even have nationals at your school? Based on your previous posts, it wasn't hard to figure out where you go.

So if the four nationals you have are not what you're looking for, then what national are you thinking about trying to join?

It's not about being a ChiO, ADPi or Sigma, PhiSig, SDT or DPhiE.
Honestly, at the local level it doesn't matter what the letters are, because if you had ChiO instead of SDT or ADPi instead of DPhiE the girls would still be the same. Being a PhiSig instead of an AlphaSig doesn't change you as a person. All of our sororities have great philanthropies, mission statements, creeds, flowers, jewels and patrons, etc...but it comes down to the people, not the letters. ASA was right for me at my school, but who's to say if went to Radford instead that I would have fit better with a different group.
You know what? Maybe being in a sorority just isn't for you. It isn't for everyone.

You know it girl - put it out there, I'll call you on it. 
[note to OP - it takes 5 seconds on Google to locate a local sorority - especially if there's only one of it]
ETA: Some people need specific examples - they just don't "get it", and I had a feeling that this is one of those people.

This is quite possibly the truest thing I have ever read on GreekChat.
ETA: It took me less than 2 seconds last night to figure out what school the OP attends. Given that she has already posted some additional personal information, it shouldn't be too hard for her sisters to figure out who she is. Might not be wise to advertise that she's thinking about dropping out and joining a national, unless she wants to create even more conflict in her current sorority.

Actually, I looked at the OP's GLO website, and I can tell exactly who SHE is. I'm not [thee who shall not be named] so I'm not going to post that info, but just know that it was that easy.

Not to mention we've had quite a few posters from that school on here.

Seriously, can you just shut up and stop already?
You may not be posting her name, but you're just as bad for flaunting the fact that you know who the hell she is now.
