In late January of this year I was put on a different medicine and my grades shot up. Right now I have all A's and B's, which obviously has not been the case through high school.
On another note, my friends and I were talking and we were just a little confused as to whether sororities look at your senior year GPA or your entire high school.

I was going to say, you probably had to have several redeeming qualities to get into Ole Miss, because without sports, clubs, job, and a challenging high school, someone with a GPA that low probably wouldn't get into Ole Miss (anyone more famililar with Ole Miss correct me if I'm wrong).
Sororities will look at your whole GPA, most likely. HOWEVER, this brings up another important point. At any SEC school, and especially Ole Miss, you must have at least one rec for each chapter (I believe Chi Omega at Ole Miss wants at least 2). Have your rec writers play up your recent academic success (at a challenging high school no less), among your other good qualities. Definitely write the letter explaining your learning disability. Understand that it won't be a free pass for an invite for the next round (because there is no such thing at a school as competitive as Ole Miss, not even legacy status), but if your recs and your personality shine (and it'll be extra helpful if you are friends with any current members of Ole Miss chapters), you may just have a chance.
