Aside from the fact that it's pretty rare for a college student to have fully transitioned (GRS), trans folk who aren't activists typically don't go around outing themselves as trans.

A stealth FTM seeking membership in a cis-male fraternity as opposed to an FTM fraternity probably doesn't want to be known as trans.

In those rare cases where a college student has the means for safe transition and GRS, it would likely be difficult if they began the school as one gender and people observed the transition. I'm thinking not as difficult if they started one school as one gender, had GRS, transferred and then sought membership.
