I agree with most of what's been said - the scholarship is more important.

Have your daughter check the timing, because often Initiations are at weird times, like early in the morning or at night. She may still be able to make both.

If not, have her tell the New Member Chair right away. If it's a small pledge class or there's some flexibility, they may be able to move the ceremony to accomidate her.

If worst comes to worst, she can be Initiated at another school if there's a chapter nearby with a similar schedule, or they'll get her Initiated at a later ceremony. Our Nationals frowns on doing two Initiations in one semester, especially if it's just for one or two girls. A few years ago 4 girls out of a smaller class were at a meet, so we held another Initiation the weekend after. This year 2 girls of a bigger class had conflicts, and we were told they just had to wait and be Initiated next semester with our COR class since no other chapters close by were having Initiations. A pain in the butt for the girls, but not a big deal in the long run. They were treated as regular sisters, but just didn't know the ritual.
