3Rd year UCSD wants to rush

Your GPA will hurt you.

Concentrate and work on getting your GPA up. Your classes aren't going to get any easier make sure you can handle the workload along with the time in a sorority before you consider going through recruitment.

Is FR in the fall? If so, that gives you all of Spring semester to get your GPA up.

What is your actual GPA? Is 2.4 where you are now, or where you hope to be? As you get further into your major's classes, you should be achieving higher grades in your classes. Figure out what your GPA will have to be this semester and next to reach, for example, a 2.5, 2.75, etc.

I would think that poor grades could factor highly in first round cuts in any chapter.

Good luck, and put your classes first. A sorority (or any other activity/group) should be supplemental to your education.

My GPA is slightly under a 2.0..but my classes are going pretty great for once =]

Yeah, most sororities have a minimum GPA of at least a 2.5 to be extended a bid. I'd contact your school's Greek Life office for the specific GPA requirements for your campus, but more often than not, they're anywhere from a 2.5 to a 2.75 or higher.

I'm going to be blunt. I would suggest holding off on rushing until you can get your grades up to at least 2.5. If you go though with a GPA like the one you have now, you will most likely be very disappointed.

Also, please keep in mind that you're in college to get an education. You not only need decent grades for recruitment, but also to graduate.
