And yet they exist. I'm going to guess from the assumptions that seem to underlie your post that you are a member of an NPC sorority. The OP is not asking about an NPC sorority. Apples and oranges.

Not to mention that there actually are NPC groups that take grad students.

I am sure if you develop strong friendships with these girls and are being yourself you could break the legacy only restrictions but why would you only want to join a sorority if they say they only want certain people? Junior and Senior year is very busy with a job, finishing school, family, and just life so I wish you luck in anything you do!

Out-of-lane newbie or sockpuppet?

I don't know any alumnae that came back to my chapter. My mother also went to the same college as a graduate student and did not rejoin so my experience comes from what the women on my campus do and family knowledge. But, now my question is if you never joined before would a chapter even allow you as a graduate student? Wouldn't they want it to be girls that are from their chapter?

Your experience is from one chapter at one college.

As someone stated before, the OP is talking about a non-NPC organization, so things work a little differently.

In some fraternities and sororities, yes.

It's really best to lurk on greekchat for awhile before jumping in and answering everyone's question under the sun. Or you can respond to an NPHC question, incorrectly, and expect to get a world of (verbal) hurt. A few things I've learned from being here, NPHC sororities and fraternities don't discuss member intake and 2-they get really annoyed with the NIC and NPCers who act like that's the only Greek system on the planet. Stay in your lane.

Wow. Didn't even catch that. I'm very sad for this poster, he's going to have a hard life with many reality checks if that's his actual attitude.

He's not the only one I was referring to, though. We have a few around here thread-bombing their "advice" who I know fit into the new initiate category.

And yet he introduced himself this morning -- because he had to.
