But I will never find that out until I try!!! I think that by being married to my childs father would be a postive that a soroity would look at, not a negiative. Thank You all!!!

I think having a child will be weighed negatively. I don't know one person in my school's Greek system who had a child. Maybe it happens elsewhere, but it definitely is not the norm. Your life as a wife and mother is 100% different from that of a typical college student.
A girl in my pledge class was 23 or 24 and received a bid because she was a legacy. She never hung out with the rest of the pledge class, who were a bunch of 18 and 19 year olds, and eventually dropped out of the sorority within a year. If age makes that much of a difference, I'd think motherhood would be even worse.
