College courses won't be factored into a high school GPA. I speak from experience. HOWEVER YMMV, waiting to hear if other GCers have something different to say about this.

There are a million reasons why a freshman wouldn't be exactly 18. I wouldn't sweat that at all. I mean, unless you're 23. Then you likely would not fit into a Big 10 sorority type environment. But 19 or 20? I don't see that as a huge problem.

But you said you are on the rebound grades-wise. I want to caution you that all the sororities have pretty stiff GPA requirements and below which they have virtually no wiggle room, regardless of good reasons. So just be aware that you may get cut heavily if you are on the bubble, grades-wise. Don't let that ruin your rush experience and just be happy and enthusiastic about the options you do have.

It appears to me that all of the Big 10 schools have thriving Greek systems right now so be open to all of your choices. And many of them have new chapters (sadly, Iowa and Northwestern are not among them. yet), so be open to the newer chapter that may be smaller. They'll be fine so don't let it scare you away.
