Minimum Academic Standards

IU wraps around the semesters, so I would agree with SquirrelGirl and take the time to explain yourself and stress that your grades will be much higher this semester, if you have improved them. That way, you may get invites back in the spring and they will not have to make a decision on you until you have new grades to show them.

Thanks for all of your help! I have not been contacted so that is a good sign. I have heard from a few girls that many houses require atleast a 2.6 GPA. I am not sure what my GPA will be after this semester, but it looks like I will have all A's. I was just wondering if the houses stick to their set GPA or is that just something to shoot for. I guess what I am asking is if someone has like a 2.45 GPA are they automatically ineligible?

The GPA that chapters list is the GPA that is required in order to receive a bid. Often, this GPA is set by the national headquarters of the sorority, so it is something that they have to follow. Honestly, you're going through at IU, that school has a competitive recruitment, so your grades are going to be a factor. Chapters do tend to stick to their GPA requirements.
