Now here is the question: given the circumstances would I a) be allowed to join another by nationals or IFC and b) be accepted by another fraternity.

Let me just say off the top, I am not planning on switching and I am not 100% sure if I even want to, I would just like to know if I have the opportunity open to me given I was never initiated and not present when the incident in question took place.

Thanks a lot.
Did the chapter make up their own ritual? Usually all NIC fraternities have rituals that do not violate IFC regulations. The only possible reason for an IFC to take action is if the ritual involved alcohol and intense hazing.

Now for my opinion: Definitely focus on grades. You will not get anywhere without decent grades. Most fraternities require a 2.5 or higher. It may vary. Having over a 3.0 is definitely a plus.

If your chapter's national decides to revoke the initiation for violations, then you are still eligible to get initiated into another fraternity.
