To join a fraternity, how important is GPA?

<p>Unless things have really really changed in recent years, I believe GPA is irrelevant to pledging a social fraternity. The only issue is whether you feel you can maintain your grades with the additional time commitments and distractions of a fraternity.</p>

<p>Of course, there are also academic organizations (some of which have Greek names), where I imagine GPA would really matter.</p>
