Sororities for A Junior Transfer

by: AbZ

Hi, I’m an incoming Junior transfer student from another university. I’m interested in Greek life but don’t know if it’s too late for me to join.
What is the likelihood of me getting a bid from a sorority?
Which sororities typically have space or offer bids to upperclassmen?
Is it better for me to just not rush since I’ll be a Junior?
Thank you!

hey, i transferred in and rushed as an upperclassman too. a lot of the chapters won’t even consider u, so expect to get dropped from a bunch of them after the first day. pi phi takes sophomores and has taken juniors in the past, and axo and phi mu will take sophomores. if u know people in the chapter u have got a better shot. good luck ! if u want to join greek life u should totally rush and try it out.

There was previously an upperclassman quota - each house had to take at least “X” upperclassmen. Does that still exist?

There is not that any longer, and that's not how an upperclassmen quota works anyway. Quota isn't 'have to take' a certain number, it's an upper limit, just like for freshmen, that no chapter can go over. Can't believe you're an 'alum' and never learned that.

Maybe quota wasn’t the right word but when I was there, there were a certain number of spots reserved for upperclassmen. I was a gamma chi so I’m pretty sure I’m remembering it correctly but no need to be rude lol

100% rush if its something you're interested in, definitely worth it even just for the experience. Just be aware that a lot of chapters will drop you for no other reason other than its more financially advantageous for them to take a freshman who will pay dues for 4 years over a junior who will pay for only 2 years.
