Recs for rushing a sorority

<p>HI!
So I’m really interested in joining a sorority but I have a few questions regarding the process.
I believe that I have to have a recommendation letter for each house, and I do know very few alums of sororities, but not many. I’m from Dallas, so does this mean that if I absolutely don’t have any more connections, I can contact my local Dallas Alumnae Panhellenic Association and they will get alums to write recs for me?
And when I get all my recs together, when is the appropriate time to send them? Since baylor rush is only in the spring, do I send them throughout the fall semester, or in the summer before school even starts?</p>
