Hi, I am doing informal rush for a sorority next week. I am rushing a sorority that originally dropped me in the fall, but i did not give greek life a chance during formal. My friend is in the one im rushing now and they take 25-30 girls. Should i be nervous?
I hope you are yourself and have fun.
There are a lot of reasons people aren’t invited back to parties during formal rush, and the biggest one is numbers. There is a whole formula for how many can be invited back to the second and third rounds of parties, and it is a different number for each house based on how many they have had accept their invitations in the past. It is designed so that everyone who wants one will have a bid and that the most popular houses won’t invite everyone back and then have to drop 3/4 of them before bids.
Thank you! I was just nervous during formal because it was the first week of school but I feel informal will be a much better fit for me. just nervous, thats all ahah
do you think if about 30 girls emailed to do it that i’ll have a good shot?
I can’t guess because it depends on their numbers. Really, just relax. If you really want to join a house, go to several different ones so you can see what they are like. You just never know which one will click.
i thought you could only rush spring?
