One word....Therapy!
I expect that the daughter will become very successful in whatever she does, and will be happy. It's absolutely devistating to get cut from your favorites, but D has worked to overcome those obstacles. She will be the fighter in the family.
As for bottom tier vs. top tier. When I was in school, there was a chapter (XYZ) who was considered the very bottom tier of all sororities and had the fewest members. A few years after I graduated, they recolonized. Guess what? They are currently one of the top tier sororities at the school. FWIW...two of the girls from that chapter are now doctors; I know of at least one lawyer and two that have their PhDs and do research.
Mom, your D is now an Adult and you need to realize that what the daughter wants is not your choice. Give yourself credit for one thing...your daughter finds beauty in things that are not superficial. Many girls this age can't look at the big picture.
I would be thrilled to have a daughter like your's.
