recruitment gpa changes
by: .
In the past, it has been:
Green zone = 3.0
Yellow zone = 2.8 - 2.99
Red zone = 2.79 or below
Now it is:
Green zone = 3.2
Yellow zone = 3.0 - 3.19
Red zone = 2.99 or below
I rushed as a freshman in 2016, and I was outgoing, had great recs, cute social media, got compliments on my dresses/makeup at almost every house, and I thought that I was going to have a great rush. I was dropped because of my 2.95 GPA. I re-rushed as a sophomore with a higher GPA and now I am in a house that I love. I thought that my personality, looks, recs, money, and style would outweigh my lower GPA. It didn’t. If you are going through recruitment this fall with a GPA under 3.2, please don’t get your hopes up about getting a bid, because you will probably be very upset like I was my first time through rush.

With so many PNMs going through recruitment, it’s safe to assume that no one factor can get you into a chapter, but one factor can get you cut. You can be the total package but have a sucky GOA and get dropped. You can have a great GPA, recs, cute outfits, bubbly personality, be a legacy, extracurriculars, but if your social media shows you facing a bottle of vodka you’re cut. It’s not like Indiana with an unreasonably low quota for the number of ONMs in recruitment; if you’re cut completely, it happened for a reason.

@PNMs: If all of this is seeming like a scare tactic to you; it is one. Panhellenic doesn’t want 300 girls with a 2.99-3.19 GPA going through recruitment, and having to drop all of them. It doesn’t look good.
If you don’t have enough recs, if you don’t have the GPA, if you are not sure if you want to be involved in your sorority all 4 years, if you’re not sure if you can afford it or make the time commitment, PLEASE don’t embarrass yourself by coming through recruitment.
