But it was about purported prestige rather than sisterhood. Remember that for NPC, we are talking about teenagers joining.

Most of the collegiate NPHC members that I have known were juniors or seniors when they crossed. Whereas in the NPC, you can pledge a sorority before you even have your first college class. It's not unusual for freshmen to transfer, but the closer one gets to graduation, the less common transferring becomes in general.

I would then wager that there could be just as much research ("time and dedication") on the NPC PM then. If they've thought about transferring from Feeder College to Big-Name Chapter University (or as mentioned, getting dropped from house of choice at BNCU, transferring to FC then transferring back to BNCU with letters from FC), that takes researching--the orgs AND the schools.
And then, all of that "work" to get into house of your choice, and having said house go
I'd be pissed. I know results vary for every girl, but sads that all that hustling happens in what, the first 2 years of college and could turn out less than ideal.
