Every NPC sorority has grade requirements. These vary between organizations, but a college GPA of 2.5 or 3.0 is typical and a high school GPA of 3.0/4.0 is pretty typical.

Specific chapter GPA requirements can vary tremendously from the official national requirements. That's what she's asking about and yeah definitely treading into MS territory.

Yep. And it really never goes down, only up.

Not necessarily. Usually there is a campus minimum to even be eligible to go through recruitment and then each chapter has their own minimum (which is the same or higher). Further, the chapter minimum may be the same as the national minimum of that sorority or it may be higher. Knowing what these numbers are is not membership selection, and is often readily accessible. Whether the sororities choose to adhere to these numbers or take grade risks is membership selection, confidential and dependent on the PNM.

Duh. I think that was pretty well covered in previous posts. I was replying to the specific post about the national requirements being available. I didn't see a need to beat a dead horse, but here is a full summary:

1. Schools have minimum GPAs to rush. These can be lower than any of the sororities' national or individual chapter requirements (which may exceed their national GPA requirements.)

2. Sometimes these requirements are publicized. Sometimes they are not. If they are not, then it is chapter business and part of membership selection.
