How do I tell my parents I want to join?

[ohhai]

I want to join a sorority, but I have no idea how to tell my parents I want to join one. None of my family has been part of a sorority or a fraternity, so it never even occurred to my parents or me that I would want to join one. At my previous university, I saw how much fun sororities looked and there was deferred recruitment, but by the time it was the spring semester, I was on academic probation and was ineligible.

I'm transferring to a new school next year due to bad grades at another university. I got my GPA up to a 3.0 at my old school, but my GPA would be a 2.95 at the new one. I'm also taking summer classes so my GPA would be above a 3 for recruitment. So my grades shouldn't be a factor for my parents to tell me not to join.

I just don't know how to broach the topic with my parents. How do I bring it up to them? I've gotten my act together when it comes to studying and prioritizing things, so I definitely think I can handle my time properly now.
