Serious question:

Your username suggests you're already in a fraternity. Why exactly are you asking for this info?

Just for the record, if you're not Pike, you need a new username.

Reminds me of a kid I knew who's last name was Cox, lived in Coxville, and went to USC whose mascot is the Game Cocks!

You're a brother of PKA that's transferring, or you have a biological brother who's transferring?

And are you seriously gonna be a smart ass when people are trying to get information to help you?

If you're already a brother, why does competitiveness of the Greek system matter?

haha damn. I shouldn't have to explain myself this much. I just thought there were people on this site who would respond to the question rather than pick it apart. You guys take this shit way too serious. Ya, I'm a pike my brother isn't in a frat, hes a frosh possibly transferring to wvu. I'm just wondering if that would hurt him.

Um, if you want an accurate answer you do...

There's an Alpha Phi from WVU on GC so maybe she could give you some insight. You could also shoot an e-mail to the president of your WVU chapter and ask him about it, I'm sure he could give you an honest answer on your brothers chances at getting a bid.

I graduated from WVU in 2007 and still talk to some sisters who are still in college. Greek Life is definitely not competitive for the fraternities. Pledge classes for both fraternities and sororities are a mixture of freshmen and sophomores. I'd definitely recommend fall fraternity rush to your brother, as the events are more publicized than spring rush. He should check the DA in the fall during fraternity rush week (usually the week before sorority rush) and most of the houses will have ads in there for their events. They also advertise them outside their house.

There's also a Pike chapter at WVU.

QFP

So we're obligated to help you, even though we know absolutely nothing about you? You think that's the best way to get an accurate answer?

Clearly, you prefer being an asshole. You won't get much help that way.
