<p>My college social life hasn't been too fantastic. I am really looking for more friends in my life, but I feel like most of the people I have encountered are cliquey or never make it beyond classroom acquaintances. I know it sounds like bad reasons, but I mainly want to transfer because of the horrible location of my current school, how I really don't like the social vibe, and how incredibly dull it is here. Greek life is NOT a big deal here, my college only has one sorority and rushing is coming up soon. The school I want to transfer to has 6 sororities and they look like a lot of fun based on their facebook pages. But should I join here for something to do for the rest of this semester, in hopes that i MIGHT love it so much that I would want to stay here? Unfortunately I have a night class that would interfere a couple nights a week. And also if I do join and end up transferring, does that make it impossible for me to ever join another sorority again?</p>
<p>If you are leaning toward transferring and already know you will have conflicts with potential sorority activities, then I would discourage you from going through recruitment at this time. Getting initiated into one sorority DOES mean that you are bound to that sorority for life – even if you were to transfer, drop out of the sorority, etc, you would not ever be allowed to join another chapter.</p>
<p>If you do decide to stay at your school, you might consider going through recruitment next year. And if you transfer, maybe give recruitment a try there. Best of luck!</p>
