I've had several sisters transfer to the University of Alabama over the years (from our small liberal arts university with chapters maxing out at 60), and none tried to affiliate. I don't blame them because I wouldn't either...culture shock is real and it would be hard to go from a small, laid back chapter to a large powerhouse chapter.

I only know of two girls who asked to join our chapter as transfers. One was when I was a sophomore, and before a decision was made she told us she was transferring back to her first school. The second was this year, and of course I'm an alum so I don't know her but she came from a similarly sized chapter with a similar member make up. I know a couple of transfers from another state school in another chapter on campus that have said they had culture shock coming to the chapter here even though they're about the same size because the member make up was so different. It just goes to show how different our chapters can be from campus to campus.
