but thanks to all of you

To the GCers -- would you even have to indicate that you rushed and pledged a sorority on the new school's recruitment form? Correct me if I'm wrong, but if it asks about previous pledgeship wouldn't that apply just to the girls who are re-rushing again on that campus?
To the OP, best of luck with rush.

Not necessarily. I can only speak for AOII, but a new member in good standing can move to another chapter and be initiated there. It has happened before and could happen again. Actually, one of the founding sisters of my chapter was originally pledged at Randolph-Macon but had to leave due to family issues before initiation. She could have been initiated at Convention but could not afford to go. She was initiated into AOII during the instillation ceremony for my chapter instead.
