gpa

does anyone know the answer? will i get dropped automatically if my grades are below a 3.0?

As long as your gpa is above the sororities minimum requirement (around 2.4-2.7 depending on the sorority) you will be fine. I know girls who were below the requirement but still got in but it's rare

if its really high it can help you. but if its not, it doesnt affect you that much as long as youre above the minimum. a few chapters like adpi care but for the most part the chapters dont look that much into it

it really depends honestly. and unfortunately your major will affect that view even more. I'm an engineering major, and like had a really hard time with chemistry my first semester and got a D-, and even though I got B+/A- in all my other classes, I went into rush with a 2.1. I immediately got dropped from every chapter except for 2, even the one where I was a 5x legacy. How the rankings work, most chapters CAN'T (like aren't allowed because of their bylaws) to rank girls highly if their GPA is below their minimum. I got a bid from one of the chapters, so obviously if they really really really love you, then there will be a way. But it's going to be pretty much impossible to get into a top tier (not that that should matter, but just so you know) if your GPA is bad because of how rankings work (it really is just a numbers game). So if that bothers you, I would wait until next year. However, I encourage you to still go through rush because who knows what will happen! :)

All chapters rank different. Like someone said some chapters physically cannot take members with a GPA below the requirement. It is a nationals rule for a lot of sororities. I haven't really heard major being a huge factor. With so many girls going through rush chapters don't have time to go through everyone's major. Plus rankings are done through a computer system. It is a mutual selection process. I'd focus on conversation rather than stressing over major and grades.
