  • Hey SQUAAAAD! I know some of us have had success stories when it comes to showing interest and joining the organization of our dreams but for some others, this may not be the case. I've seen from so may people (and can kind of tell from some of the negative comments in my comments 🍵) that some people face more challenges than others when it comes to joining their preferred organization. The reasons can be as simple as not having the GPA or more difficult, like not passing a background check. That being said, it's really never a good (or fair) reason to bash the entire organization based off of this denial. Always remember, timing is everything. It just may not be the right time right at that moment.
    There are always other options for you in the future. This video just discusses some of the more obvious ones. If you want something, go for it. Always remember that my personal opinions are just that .. my personal opinions. Neither myself nor anyone else can tell YOU what to do with YOUR life.

    When I was an undergrad, there was a local multi-cultural fraternity that I was interested in joining during my junior year. Went to all of the rush events and even made it to the interview. My gpa was great and my resume was also great. I received an email stating that I wasn't selected. I asked why and they told me that it was a voting process meaning that I had to receive 100% of the brothers votes and I only received 98%. I tried again the following semester and still wasn't selected.
    The following year, I was elected into a paid student board of directors position and I was working as a research assistant. It was also during that year that I met some brothers from a NPHC organization whom I started hanging out with. That same fraternity who rejected me twice, was now begging me to join their organization which I declined respectfully. Even one of their members applied for a position with my department which he got denied. A year after I graduated, I joined the grad chapter of a NPHC fraternity and I'm a graduate student at the same school for my undergrad.
    Sometimes, God closes one door to bring you to something better.

    I was denied in undergrad many moons ago. I've fostered relationships with members at the grad level of my interested organization. As for me, I appreciate the denial because when I join at the grad level, I will be committed mentally and financially.

    Great video sis! I was SOOO into joining a sorority my undergrad years. But they denied me (due to a messy friendship I had to end with one of their sorors. Yeah, that was their reason 😂)
    I then continued to pursue that orgs grad chapter. The interest was clearly not mutual (I gave my talents, time, resources, etc. but they had two lines and I wasn’t even considered)
    As I just began to give up, another Sorority came my way and VALUED me and my gifts right away. They were loving, inviting, non-judgmental and 6months later, I became a FINER WOMAN of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. 💙💙 Thank God for closing the doors that He did!!!

    I think it’s easy to give advice on being rejected when you made the organization of your choice on your first 😂! I agree with you though don’t be bitter just try again or wait to do grad. Love you channel, always good content. 💜

      It really is .. I had to think about this veryyyy early on because one of the grad council members during my process mentioned it to us and how much she had to go through. I don’t even really think she knew how what she was saying would sit with us but it really put it in to context for me so I’ve always been more cautious and considerate of those feelings. Her persistence was a lesson for me.

    Hey, this is totally random. I have fostered a relationship with a former chapter president of the organization I'm interested in however she lives in another state. Should I use them If I decide to pursue my interest or stick to a person in my state? I want to be prepared if the opportunity presents itself.

    • @SheaMiller

      That person may be helpful for making connections with others in the org .. or may even be helpful as a person who could write a LOR for you if they're willing. It doesn't hurt to maintain the connection to me.

    So if you contact an organization and they never contact you back after showing interest of a grad chapter.. should you contact another local chapter? How long should you wait to contact them again?

      No grad chapters don't operate that way attend their functions and see who you might know through networking. I was once in your situation and got no response locally. They don't respond to letters.

      Ms. Bizlady the problem is the chapter doesn’t post events and neither does their site. I reached out because it was the only option to see what they have and to express interest

    I mean getting in an organization is a privilege not a right. Also dont get discouraged and be mean because you not selected. There alot that goes into formulating and cultivating a line and it's time consuming. Soo if u dont get in work on your self and etc.

    What is your opinion on someone being denied from one NPHC organization and going out for another organization? From my experience it seems that those people just want letters for clout

      That was my personal journey...And Im sure many people will think the same as you lol..But the way I look at it is, what I wanted as 19 years old girl, is COMPLETELY different from what I want and NEED now as a 29 year old woman..Then, I "needed" validation, popularity, friends, and for people to help me figure myself out...But at 29, I KNOW my worth, know who I am, and where I'm going on my OWN merit...And my Sorors saw that in me, and it was just a better fit, and Im so glad I didnt get what I thought I wanted...
