um NO NO and
NO!
It is COMPLETELY possible for a chapter to not accept a transfer student. It doesn't happen often, but there are extreme circumstances, and it seems like you appear to be creating some. In that case, the transfer is granted early alumna status.
I say this all only because A) I DID transfer chapters B) We DID have one girl the chapter didn't take and C) I'm now the person in charge of helping transfers reaffiliate. Paperwork takes a REALLY LONG TIME. I sent the paperwork to HQ and my old chapter in April and by late OCTOBER it still wasn't done, so quit complaining. I had little to no contact with our transfers through this summer and recruitment. Let the poor chapter get their new members and then they'll take care of you - they have WAY too much on their plate right now! If by 2 weeks after recruitment you still haven't heard back from someone, then you can start getting on to people. They know you're there and TRUST ME, at this point it sounds like it would be impossible for them to forget you.
I have a few questions: If you hated your old school so much and didn't get along with the girls in your chapter, then what makes you think sorority life is going to be different at your new school? Why do you want to be involved? Does it have anything to do with the fact that "Greek life is so big" at your new school?
And please, for the love of Greekdom, learn to write properly. You're not 15 anymore and if you haven't learned at least semi-proper English you surely shouldn't be in college. /rant
