So if u have a DD who is an active member of a sorority and her sister comes to the same school and rushes. Is she pretty much quaranteed a space at that house if they are very similar girls ?

Not an IU grad, but I'd say life holds NO guarantees (other than death and sometimes taxes) not even for an IU sorority legacy.

Any girl anywhere who goes thru rush thinking she 'has it made' to join her Mom's, her Aunt's, her Grandmother's and/or her sister's sorority is only setting herself up for disappointment. That's why posters on GC encourage women to have an open mind toward all our NPC groups during their recruitment and pledge periods.

*note: general answer, not specific to IU*

I will concur with Cheerio above and also state that I have seen in house/sitting sister legacies be cut. It's not the norm but it does happen. Some reasons: grades, attitude, and risk management issues. I've also seen RM issues on the part of the older sister impact the younger sister's recruitment because the chapter didn't want to deal with 2 headaches from the same family.

In addition, I've seen plenty of younger sisters opt to chart their own course and choose different sororities than big sister, even when big sister was still in the chapter.
