What kind of campus is your graduate program at? For example, there are campuses out there that are made up of mostly non-traditional students i.e single moms, married students, commuters, older students, second undergraduate degree students, etc. At those campuses many of the Greek organizations cater to those non-traditional students.

The best of luck!

Some other threads

Hi,

I'm not sure if you've read any of these, but there are a few other threads that have to do with graduate students wanting to join undergraduate chapters.

Graduate Student and AI
Can Graduate Students Rush?

I'm sure there are others out there, so try the search option. Have you called your graduate schools Greek office?

Good luck

MissKP:

The type of school you are at has a great deal to do with whether or not you would be a good fit for sorority involvement, even before getting into whether you could rush as a graduate student. If we khew where you were going it would help tremendously.

Tom,

MissKP stated that she wanted to be connected to the university, and she felt that joining a sorority might be a good way to do so.

While I'm sure MissKP has lots of other reasons she wants to join a sorority, she didn't describe any of them here. KDdani's (perfectly legitimate, in spite of you insinuating otherwise) question was asking the OP to expand upon the other reasons she might want to join a sorority since, as a graduate student, you're NOT going to be connected, really, to the undergraduate institution except maybe as a TA. If the only reason MissKP wanted to rush and join an undergraduate chapter is to feel connected to campus, then she would be better served to join graduate organizations/professional programs.

I, too, would like to know the other reasons MissKP wants to join as it might help us tailor any future advice better to her.

I hope that Answers Your question Tom!
