Unfortunately, I have to agree with
kddani. Granted, I know zero about the University of South Alabama
but it does seem like there are several things stacked against you. If that school does formal rush in the Fall and you plan to rush in the Spring, be aware that your choices may be limited from the beginning because not all chapters may be participating in Spring rush. Your age may or may not be an issue; I don't know. However, your GPA is very likely to affect your chances of receiving a bid (or even invitations to the next round) as well as the fact that you've transferred several times. Sororities might look at that and say, "Wow, she sure doesn't stay in one place very long...maybe we shouldn't bid her because she probably won't stick around!" I'm not implying that you don't plan on staying a while at USA or that you lack commitment, but to people who don't know you, it may look that way. And that's another thing--if you don't know
anyone on campus, it's probably going to be hard simply because there's no one who can vouch for how cool/fun/smart/whatever you are. And especially when there are all those other things (GPA, age, transfers) that might give sororities reason to be skeptical, with no one who knows you, you might be cut heavily.
