should i wait to be a member of delta sigma theta sorority inc.?

Question

when i get to college should i wait a semester or a year or watever to pledge so that i can get use to college life first

Answer 1

I would recommend waiting, since you will probably have enough to have to get used to. Take the time to check out the different sororities and talk to greeks and non-greeks alike to get perspective on it. The only time I would do it first semester is if I was unable to make friends on my own and really lonely on a new campus. Join a few clubs your first semester; much cheaper than a sorority and easier to join and leave as they suit you.

Answer 2

The membership eligibility requirements for Delta Sigma Theta, Inc. are posted on their website and elsewhere. Do your research (required) and you will find the answer to your question.

NPHC sorority membership is much different than what most people associate with sorority 'rush'.

Answer 3

I believe that most sororities look to freshmen for their pledge pool. You may wish to ask them what their guidelines are.

A sorority can be either a help or hindrance in getting used to college-it depends upon whether the group stresses social life or academics.

Answer 4

You have to have a certain amount of hours to apply for membership, although it varies among schools, I believe most schools require that you have at least 30 hours so you wouldn't be eligible your freshman year anyway. Like the previous poster said, go to national website and also check your school's website. Plus you should observe the chapter at your school to see if you really want to be a member and also just a word of advice, keep your interest quiet. Discretion is important but you'll learn more about that.

Answer 5

Why would ANYBODY want to join a sorority/fraternity? They are elitist, restrictive and, in most cases, expensive to join. What POSSIBLE benefits could anybody derive from joining such groups?
