These other two chapters turned down the opportunity to offer you a bid during formal recruitment. What have you done to improve your chances or make you more attractive to them? Why would they suddenly look twice at you now that you will be even older?! Sometimes, you have to be realistic when assessing your options. Are you likely to join the group you want? Are you their ideal candidate? Would you rather be non-Greek than a member of one of the other sororities? Think things through before fall informal.
I've become more involved on campus, raised my GPA, and lost weight. One of the houses is the one everyone wants, so its of course more competitive, and there was always way more PNMS around than actives, making it very hard to actually get to an actual conversation in. As for the other one, well I'm not sure what happened in spring recruitment though they seemed to be very interested in the fall, but I couldn't get a bid in the fall because of school policy. And Why would I join a house...just to be in a house? That would be joining for the wrong reasons, and would be unfair to both myself and the other sisters. I do not feel 'at home' with them, nor do I feel that their sorority is the place for me, I've considered it immensely.
