Unfortunately, the tiers at Madison are not going to change a whole lot....I went through recruitment 6 years ago and the top three and bottom two are exactly the same. If you are looking to switch to top tier it is not going.to happen.
However you CAN improve the reputation of your chapter. Run for panhel rep and volunteer members of your chapter (especially the bright and vivacious ones) to help out. Maximize your opportunities with the mandatory Sorority Sisterhoods and Sober Socials. Go to fraternity philanthropy events..... All of them.
If you show up at their house on Friday nights to drink beer expecting to be paid for because you are a sorority girl, that won't help. Build friendships and go from there. Any fraternity mixer I planned was with a friend in another chapter. I was wary to plan mixers with people I didn't know that well.
Good luck!
