We rush and initiate juniors all the time, mind you the dynamic at our school is a bit different from the rest. We're a Canadian chapter at a university where the more than half of the school is on co op, meaning alternating terms of school and work, and we are unregulated and unrecognized by the university. So not only are fraternities not such a big thing in Canada as they are in the states, we can't hold events or advertise on campus. And as such we typically have very few freshmen rush, we mostly get sophomores and juniors, even seniors. It's never to late to rush, but I would advise you to stay away from fraternities that would haze you. At our chapter we treat our pledges like royalty, compared to what I have seen at other chapters. They have no direct responsibilities to the chapter, no party duties, no clean up duties, nothing we wouldn't want to be forced upon ourselves. Thats just how we operate.
