I have heard it mentioned that DKE is rather selective. Yet, Howard Johnson came to Yale to experience college after he had built his HOJO empire. He was one cool old guy and received multiple bids based on the simple fact that he was simply himself and didn't try to act like a kid but like a guy who came to college late and wanted to participate as fully as he could.
Proud to say he joined DKE and was, I am told, a good pledge, a great active brother, and an enthusiastic alumnus.
Moral of the tale, go for it. Nothing to lose and a lot of great experiences to gain. You could bring experience, savvy, and wisdom to the house that bids you. Being an older brother sounds like it could be a benefit to everyone.
