There is a difference between the girl who picked a college for academic reasons and the girl who picked a college because of (as I say above) "the script." If you grow up just assuming you'll go to your state school and pledge somewhere good and then that plan gets messed up, then it can be very isolating and disorienting if Greek life is huge at your school and you keep running into people you know from home. Now obviously if you selected your school for academic reasons and rush didn't go well, then that isn't a good reason to transfer, but if you went to college (as many people do) largely for the social life, then it is a bit more understandable. And I say this as a PhD who takes academics very seriously. Thank goodness my parents were supportive and encouraging of my deviating from "the script."
