You won't know unless you try.

This depends on your university, the specific fraternity, and quite frankly, you. There will be fraternities at certain universities that wouldn't give you the time of day, others that might welcome you with open arms, and still others that would at least give you a look if you were a good candidate (good grades, fun person, well kept, etc).
