I'm sorry, Lakrosse, I know that being cut from a house you wanted really can hurt. And I really don't think that anything we say here will make you feel better about it. I know you feel like you really got along well with the brothers, but the truth is that you will probably never know why you were cut. Membership selection is a secret process, and as curious as you may be (I know I'm still curious about why I was cut from a chapter when I went through rush), the truth is that no one is going to tell you exactly why you didn't get a bid. And furthermore, we on GreekChat don't know your campus culture, and we don't know where your chapter is, so we can't begin to speculate on weather or not being a transfer would hurt your chances.

But here is what I can tell you. First, I really doubt it was only your height or only the fact that you are a transfer. Perhaps the guys liked you, but didn't see you as a fit with the chapter. It happens all the time. Also, it seems like you only rushed one chapter. Perhaps if you had rushed other chapters, you may have found other who would invite you to their brotherhood.

So I'm sorry, Lakrosse, I know this blows balls for your right now, if you pardon my expression. But instead of dwelling on the fact that you didn't get a bid, go out, get involved, and you're going to find you friends and start to fit into your new college.
