unhoused sororities

All three chapters -TPA, ASA & DPE - are working and saving towards getting houses EVENTUALLY. None of them colonized with the intention of being permanently unhoused.

That being said, if you're in school now and join one of these groups, it's doubtful you will get to live in a traditional sorority house.

No they aren't. You need to stop making ish up like this.

How the hell would you know if they're getting a house or not? Unless you have a Batphone directly to their National HQ and their alumnae advisory board and their council, you don't know anything.

when are they colonizing? are they going to be top tier, seeing as they are well known throughtout the country

We're they top tier even when they were here? Phi Kapps house is their old house if that says anything

I don't think they will be top tier just because they have a house. Their place in the tierdom will be determined based on the women in the sorority.

You have to be established on campus at least 5 years before being eligible for a house. ASA and TPA are eligible next year

^^ THIS.

SK's colonization is not going to be how DPhiE's was. You're just as likely to get a bid to SK as you are to any of the housed chapters. So if you got cut from all the houses you liked this year, chances are Sigma Kappa won't like you either.

Get your grades up now and start getting involved. They'll want girls who have a very involved and positive presence on campus. This is not going to be the type of colonization where they just give out bids to everyone.

Don't listen to this. People who are not in SK have NO idea how the colonization will work or how picky they will be. They don't have any experience with colonization. They don't have any experience with SK. They are just making stuff up.

I half-way think that they are intimidated and are trying their best to make SK's colonization fail by telling everyone to avoid even trying to get a bid.

If you want to try for SK, try for SK. You can't get a bid, if you don't try.

No we're just telling people to stop pushing Sigma Kappa as if it's the savior for all the girls that didn't get bids. It's not. If this many girls go out for SK then yes it will be competitive, so don't think you can walk in and get a bid like DPhiE. they are not the same, you'd actually find a few SK legacies at this school as opposed to the other colongies.

Yes, SK is a substantial national sorority and completely unlike the current three unhoused sororities which are small niche groups. That's why they can hit the ground running with a new house in the mix. They aren't going to accept every formal recruitment reject like the other three did. Keep your grades up. Get involved. Don't do stupid things. Be a woman of substance, one that a sorority that's in a position to be particular will want as a member.

Spring 2016

It is true. There are plans on websites

SK also committed to it during their presentation. Even if you don't get a chance to live in the house because you graduate, it makes a wonderful place to come home to visit. It also shows SK's commitment to the success of their IU colony and their national financial strength,

It doesn't take that long to build a house. The SAE and Phi Psi houses went up in about a year's time. So if SK colonizes in Jan. 2016, they could be in the house as soon as Jan. 2017 and most likely Fall 2017.

They closed for bad numbers around the same time Tri Sig and AOPi closed( aopi recolonized early 2000s clearly). They had just had a new house built too which they sold to Pi Kapps in '95.( their current house)
