We can't really say what your chances are. Membership Selection is private info and it involves alot more than just grades and ACT scores. There is alot that goes into it.

However, I will say that you could be setting yourselves up for a potential disappointment if you guys are ONLY interested in being in the SAME SORORITY.

If you're a "package deal", it is going to affect where you get invited back because some chapters may only be interested in ONE of you.

Also, consider what happens if one of you likes a chapter and the other doesn't? Is one of you ok with potentially ending up in a chapter you don't like just so the 2 of you can be together?

Where I went to school, the "package deal" thing tended to work out if the twins liked all the same chapters. But it caused a problem if Twin A didn't like the same chapters as Twin B. Or Twin A didn't get invited back to the same chapters as Twin B.

What would you do then?

For what it's worth, I know a set of twins who used college and recruitment as their first opportunity to establish their own identities, by pledging different chapters.

If you want to pledge the same chapter, that's fine too. But just be aware that it will affect your recruitment result if you're a "package deal."

I know here at Ole Miss we have had plenty of twins who join the same sorority or they each do their own thing. So just be yourself. You'll figure it out!

Same here... I would say half the chapters on my campus have a set of twins...but I have also seen it where the twins go to different chapters but dont worry they still love each other!! Like OleMissGlitter said, just be yourselves..

100% agree with everything you said here!

I also know of a set of sisters (not twins - born a year apart) that rushed together. They were very very very close. They both pledged different chapters and are still close as sisters.
