Not to mention, MaggieXi, that plenty of PNMs are only 17 and, as minors, legally incapable of binding themselves via contract.

From my experiences with a few campuses only - usually the parents are contacted prior to the bidding process to ensure that they will allow their child to join the sorority. The sororities usually handle these bids a little differently.

Plenty? I know this is by school district, but don't most places say you have to be 5 by September 1 to start kindergarten nowadays?

It depends. I started at 4, but I went to a private school that allowed kids to start that early (if it was determined by testing that they were ready.) So I was a 17-year-old freshman!

Me, too.
I started school in a different state, and I started first grade at age 5. Everybody in my high school class was anywhere from two weeks to two years older than me.

I started at 4 and turned 5 at the end of November. So I was a 17 year old freshman in college.

psst, ladies, I said "nowadays." None of you went to school in the last 2 or 3 years to my knowledge.

They just changed the rule in my school district - effective this year you have to be 5 by Aug. 31st. If they wouldn't have changed it, Mariana would be in kindergarten this year, because the old cutoff was October 16th, and her birthday is October 11th. I'm glad they changed it.

PS - I can't believe my little girl is 5 years old!
