<p>Has anyone had any experience with this and who else is thinking about doing it? Were you still able to rush as a transfer student (whether entering as a sophomore or junior)? What was the experience like?</p>
<p>I’m definitely interested in this topic as well. Thanks to anyone who can offer insight!</p>
<p>You don’t have to be a freshman to rush. Sophomores and Juniors are welcomed, too. Even Seniors, although their chances of getting in are slim.</p>
<p>Most fraternities will just take anybody they can get (as long as you aren’t a complete closet-case). They need the dues.</p>

<p>I don’t think I’ve ever understood the appeal of social fraternities. Can someone explain?</p>

<p>When you’re in a fraternity, you’re in a fraternity for life. If you go to a job interview twenty years from now, and the interviewer was in the same frat as you, chances are you’re not only getting the job, but you’re getting the big office with the nice view, an assistant, access to the good copier, and a mistress, too.</p>
<p>Take at DKE, for example. Anybody whose a DKE, or is related to a DKE, gets full-access of the Yale Club of New York City (look it up. It’s a nice perk to have).</p>
