Leaving school when rush didn't work out as expected was definitely a thing. A high school friend went to Emory in the 70s, participating in rush in Aug before school began. She didn't get the bid she wanted, so daddy packed her up, she immediately moved into a dorm at SMU, which they had on the string with all of the deposits, dorm room, fees etc (at that time SMU had deferred rush in Jan) Daddy bought her a new wardrobe, a red convertible, and she pledged the sorority of Daddy and Mommy's dreams in Jan at SMU.
Blew my little State U mind, but it happened.
Hope we hear some wonderful stories about this recruitment!

Not for the Princess!
We had a gal from my town who transferred to 3 different schools - albeit 3 different years - to get the sorority of choice - each time a less competitive campus. She never transferred back to the original campus, though, so I'll give her that.
And it still happens.

If she was from Clearwater - ? And it was many years ago, I may know who that was.

Many years ago, yes, but not from Florida.
