Sorry it took me so long to find my way over here.

The past couple years in particular we have had one or two older guys a year maybe (a lot of times about the same age as the seniors who came straight from HS) get bids after coming back from Iraq. I can't think of anyone in my time at the fraternity older than about 21 who pledged except for the military guys though. I'm pretty sure there may be houses who take older guys, particularly if they would have fit in with the top houses if not for age, but my particular house isn't one of them.

My inclination would be to say, hell, you have nothing to lose by rushing, but I wouldn't go in with real high hopes planning to be in a top house.
