gpa

It's actually a huge deal. If you aren't at least 3.0 you'll get cut by most of the sororities. You might not even get a bid at all. Hit the books.

We couldn't accept a GPA that low even if we wanted to.
It's extremely important.

That's the minimum set by the university. Each sorority has a minimum that they set as well. 2.5 is too low for my sorority. We don't even look at girls with lower than a 3.0. Why risk a girl that may to be able to participate because of grades. It's not worth it. Sorry.

it honestly depends on which sororities you're looking at. Typically it's a case by case basis if you're under a certain minimum. If the chapter is as petty as the girls posting above me, you probably won't get asked back after day one (the biggest cut). However, I went through formal with a 2.7? ish? and I preffed three chapters I loved and ran home to a mid tier I could't be happier in! I found out later that my chapter doesn't cut based on gpa and they were first in grades sooooo. Also, it wouldn't be bad to mention during recruitment to the girls that you went through a rough patch academically and you really are look for academic support in whatever chapter you choose! Anyway, Good luck! If you are meant to be there, you will be. Don't worry too much, but still get that gpa up before fall!

Sororities are strict with GPA but you never know. It's worth the risk just try recruitment and see how it goes and if you don't get a bid try spring or again the next fall

go for it! some sororitys turn away based on grades but if you dedicate yourself and bring it up by fall (you can use summer to boost your gpa too!), you should be good. despite common misconception, grades are actually very important in a sorority and keeping them up while being a new member (especially in fall when tailgates, socials, etc are overwhelming) can be difficult so they try to stick to girls that they already see striving for academic performance. good luck girl, i hope your GPA improves and you find the sorority you're looking for!
