chances for soph transfer with good grades?
by: transfer
I am considering transferring to Alabama as a sophomore. I have good grades (Dean's List). Do all sororities take Sophomores? If they do, is it a ridiculously competitive rush as a sophomore-like 150 girls are competing for only 2 spots in each house? I am wondering what to expect if I transfer.
What should my ideal GPA be at the end of the Spring semester?
Also, will I have missed out on a lot by not being a freshman, and will it be super weird that I am a sophomore?
Sorry for all the questions! I know I asked a lot! Thank you for you help!

As long as you get recs to as many houses as you can, keep your GPA up ( I rushed as a sophomore with a 3.4 and had an almost full schedule), dress and present yourself well, can carry a good conversation, and are open to any house that you feel comfortable in, you will do fine. I wanted to meet more friends and be involved in a sisterhood that had strong philanthropy ties. I had a mix of old and new row for prefs (old row top tier, new row mid and new row bottom) and I honestly would have been happy in any of them. There are great girls doing great things in every house. My pledge class had about 20 “upper classman” - mix of sophomore girls and some junior girls who switched majors and were going to be around for more years. I am friends with girls in older pledge classes because they are in my classes and I am friends with girls from my pledge class. The only downside is at swaps, you are mostly meeting freshman boys. Not terrible, but I prefer guys my age or a bit older.

Swaps and many sorority events are done by pledge class (PC). So if a sophmore joins a sorority in August 2018, she will be a part of PC 18 and do things with the other new members. There are also a few swaps for 2nd years, but considerably fewer for upperclassmen. Fraternities prefer the younger girls at their parties. I couldn't imagine why that would be...
