My heart really goes out to you on this one. You have received some honest and solid advice. I do think it will be extremely tough and nearly impossible if you don't have some financial support from your parents. Maybe what you could do is have a talk with them and state the benefits of being in a sorority at Bama. (smoother college transition, fast pathway to friendships, a home base away from home, academic support system, mentors, dining/housing opportunities going forward, networking etc) See if you can convince them to support you for a semester (in combination with what you earned from your summer job); and if you prove to them that this was a solid experience for you maybe they will allow you to continue.
