This is so disappointing because all I have heard for the past year is how badly she wanted to get into this or that sorority and live in the house later. I am sad that she is starting out her college life with a very big disappointment. It's so hard to let your kids grow up!
Can she articulate exactly why she doesn't feel like they are a good fit for her? Too wild? Too quiet? Too religious? Too diverse? Too cookie cutter? Is the idea of not being a good fit just a way of saying that she saw herself somewhere else? You said she wanted to get into "this or that sorority" for the past year. Obviously that isn't going to happen.

I hope she will at least finish the process. Many women have been surprised to discover their feelings changed over the rest of the parties, especially preference. After investing all this time and energy, it seems like she should at least see it through and then make a decision.
