Hi, I was just curious to find out if it is at all possible to join a sorority without attending a college. I ask this because I attended college for a semester but due to having orientation at the same time as rush I wasn't allowed to rush. Now that I am no longer attending college, not due to grades or anything just because I don't think I want a degree at the moment, I was wondering if I could still join, or if I would have to join college again. Also if I have to go back to college then how many classes do I need to take. If I was to attend another college such as a community college would I be able to join a sorority at my local university?
I know this is a weird question but any information would help. Thank you!
If it's NPC sorority membership you seek, then no, you will not be able to join because you must be enrolled in a 4 year college/university. There you will have to be a full-time student.
As far as non-NPC sororities go, you'd have to check with them and see what their bylaws say.
Until then, please do a SEARCH on GreekChat for non-collegiate sororities. There are organizations you might want to consider because being enrolled in school isn't one of their requirements.
The sorority I am founding, Theta Gamma Pi, a sorority for non-traditional women students welcomes community college students. To be eligible for membership, ladies must have completed at least 30 semester hours (45 qtr hours) toward an associate degree with a minimum 2.5 GPA, and must be at least 24 years of age. Part-time college enrollment (a minimum of 6 semester credit hours) is allowed.
