I believe the NIC passed the Genesis project initiatives which included a ten week (it may be 12 weeks) maximum pledge period. (On a side note, at our national conference this last summer we had a business session that lasted until 3am debating whether we would go from anywhere from 8 to 12 weeks programs. We went to 8 after several hand counted votes. It took forever.)
If grades are such a big issue for not implementing this, the easy thing to do is have 2 active members take a new member to each of his professors and ask what kind of progress the student is having so far in the semester and then give a best estimation of a grade.
If the kid comes back with all A's, he's probably not going to have a problem. If he is on the line of the required gpa, the chapter has the choice of holding him back or allowing him to initiate. If, after final grades are posted and he made it, then initiate him the next semester. There is no rule (or at least shouldn't be) that you can't do more than one initiation a year.

INDIVIDUALS WHO DON'T MAKE GRADES OR WHO DON'T PAY OFF BALANCES WOULD BE THE ONES HELD OVER AND POTENTIALLY INITIATED AFTER SPRING SEMESTER. ALL OTHERS WHO FULFILL THE REQUIREMENTS WOULD BE INITIATED IN EARLY JANUARY, AFTER GRADES ARE POSTED.
