I can't tell you how likely you would be to receive a bid from your legacy chapter, but I do understand what you are going through. My younger sister was in your position a few years ago. She really wanted to join a sorority, and transferred at semester to a university that she could join one at. She was very torn during the spring semester because she wanted to join ANY chapter so badly, out of the 8 chapters that were at her university, 4 of them were doing informal and all 4 had invited her to informal recruitment events. And none of those 4 were my chapter, I told her over and over again, that she needed to join a sorority for herself, not for me. She went through with informal recruitment events and she came up with the logic that if she found a group of women that she thought she could enjoy being around and build friendships with, she should go for it. She did, and LOVES being a member of Gamma Phi Beta. =) She wouldn't trade it for the world, nor would I! We both get excited for each others organization because we respect each other so much!
I would have to ask you why you would hold out for an unknown if there is a group of ladies that you enjoy spending time with and could see yourself being a part of. Being a legacy is awesome and I wouldn't take that away from anyone (I was a legacy to 3 different organizations when I went through recruitment) but if there is a chapter that you enjoy I would go for it! Taking a shot at informal won't hurt, I say go for it!! Best of luck!!
