Also, what age is the unofficial 'cut off' for your chapter not pledging someone? Like if someone was signed up for 2011 formal recruitment and listed a high school graduation date of 2004... (because of military training, a medical condition, or some other thing) Would you seriously consider someone who would be an incoming pledge at age 25+??
Thanks in advance for your thoughtful comments!

No one can tell you about ages to pledge, etc. because those factors vary widely from campus to campus. Those would be good questions for current members or the greek life office at the specific school.
Just food for thought: If a 25+ year old pledged a sorority, the majority of her pledge class would be 17-19. What would that person have in common with girls that much younger? They would not be in the same life place, and I would think that the older girl might feel a little left out and not able to relate to the whole 18 year old freshman world. Similar thoughts for the married girl. Is she going to have the time to dedicate to the sorority events if she has school and a family to manage? How well will she be able to fit in and relate to her pledge class?
