NGSU - First off, let me state that I know ZERO about your campus and my only knowledge of sororities has come from my daughter, her friends, and the people on this board who've given me lots of insight into a world I knew less than zero about before my daughter got interested in it.


I'm responding to your post because you situation sounded so similar to my daughter's and your first post sounded like one she could have easily written a few years back and I know how scared, confused and utterly clueless she was about the whole thing then....so I for one, don't think you're a troll, but I've been wrong before, so I'm not going to commit myself too fully on that.


My daughter went through her second recruitment as a junior by age and a sophomore by credits. She had a 2.8 gpa (not great - but she had a disasterous freshman year grade-wise, so she had to work hard to even get it to that point). Her school had what I would consider, based on what I've read here, a very average type of recruitment - not super competitive, not easy-breezy - just in the middle. There were 8 sororities and one colony at the time. I don't know how that compares to yours.


She went through with a lot of trepidation - scared to death. She didn't expect anything and she was VERY open minded. She didn't have a full schedule her 2nd day, but she had houses she liked and her favorite. She had disappointments and thought about dropping out at one point, but she stuck with it and ended up pledging her favorite.


None of this will help you know what your chances are unfortunately - I just wanted you to know, as the mother of a girl who was in a similar situation that as long as you're prepared for what could happen and stay open minded - you won't know unless you try.
