In short: YES.

At most competitive schools, juniors have a very difficult time receiving bids.

At UF in particular, it is pretty rare for a junior transfer to get one.

She should be prepared to potentially not receive a bid.


Also, I'd suggest for you to not be so concerned about the "tiers" of sororities.

To be honest, those that you consider "top tier" will probably be those ones who cut her first due to her class standing.

Also, even the "top tier" chapters cut legacies. At larger schools, chapters may have more legacies in recruitment than they have space for.

So please keep in mind that her legacy status does not guarantee her a bid.


You'd need to be as open-minded as possible.
