I plan on returning next semester. if i decide to join xyz org again, do i have to wait as if i'm a transfer student? can i still join?

Being a transfer student has nothing to do with it anyway. It's about credits earned (the credits that transferred) and cumulative GPA. Every org has different requirements so you will have to research these but most require at least 12 credits earned (unless the school has different requirements for those joining organizations) plus whatever their cumulative GPA is.

You are thinking of first semester freshman, who usually don't have 12 earned credits.

Slight swerve, but she may be referring to school regulations. The school itself might not allow certain students to pledge until x amount of time has passed.

That's why I put..."unless the school has different requirements...." My school didn't.
