GREAT idea for a thread!
I've definately got a question or two as a PNM.
How strict are GPA requirements?? I had a VERY nice ACT score, and most of my grades are great, but one semester totally threw me off. I have Advanced Placement credits and some other credits I tested for, but my GPA is very pooey. My cumulative is (I think) 2.42. My first semester in college was TERRIBLE. My horse died, my grandpa got cancer, my dad entered AA, my other grandpa was hospitalized,... Second semester I made the Dean's List, but my GPA is still low. How much is that going to hurt me?
Also, I am a Christian, and I've read that a lot of GLOs have close ties with christianity. Is this true? How compatible is living a christian life and committing to a sorority?
This may sound a little shallow...but how much am I financially committing to? Is there any general guideline? Most of the sororities have houses, and I'm sure that will add to it. Do all members pay the same amount whether they live in the house or not?
I know this is a serious time commitment, but is there an average number of hours per week that I can expect? (If I do make it through rush and get a bid)
Thank you in advance!
