this is what is wrong with the greek system. pledging is extra-curricular. too many people, greek included, place far too much emphasis on being greek or trying to become greek. if she is that tight on paper, then clearly she has a lot going for her. it might be disappointing, but, you suck it up and move on. these organizations have been around for years and will be there for her later. it might be later this year or 10 years from now, but that should not prevent you from breathing in and out and eating. i have seen people prolong there undergrad waiting to for a chapter to come back to pledge, people prolonging their graduation to cross a line and that is counter to everything our organizations were founded upon. this may sound harsh but she needs to get a grip and finish the semester. breaking down will not endear her to chapter if she is still trying to apply. and honestly, she may not be ready mentally strong enough to go through a process. even in the best the case scenerio, it can be stressful.
