Ok, so as a freshman this year I am very interested in going greek and at my school there is a sorority that I am planning on pledging the girls in this sorority are some of my best friends both from highschool and college, however, i am not very happy at my school. I am looking to transfer to another school for next year, however they do not have this sorority at my transfer school. I wanted more than anything to pledge with this sorority next semester but what happens if I transfer? Will I then be left unable to join a greek organization for my duration in college? Help!!!

If it's an NPC sorority, you will not be able to join another NPC sorority if you are initiated. Keep in mind that pledge and initiate are two different things.

If you're going to transfer, don't pledge now. You would be unable to pledge another group at your new school if you joined this one. Wait until you get to your new school and go through rush and find a sorority with girls you like THERE.

My advice would be to WAIT until you transfer, and go through recruitment (rush) there. Do not join a sorority at your current school if you KNOW you're going to transfer.

If you join the sorority you like at your current school, get initiated, then transfer, you CANNOT join an NPC sorority at your new school.

Click on the link I posted.

If you initiate into an NPC sorority, you may not join another NPC sorority.

If you initiate into an NPC sorority and want to join a local sorority or a sorority that belongs to another conference, it's up to them to decide.

If you're so confused, don't join a sorority at your current school. Don't waste their time if you're set on transferring.

Find that sorority's forum here on GC and be sure to post in that forum your grad chapter of choice. Oh, and don't forget to let the members know your name so they can assist you.

Visit that organization's forum, and read the sticked post at the top of the page. It tells you everything you'll need to know about joining.
