such a gentleman

sounds like u have strong morals and that is absolute gold !! i’m rooting for u & truly hope u find ur home

hahaha omg i was late to bid day bc i crashed😴😅

thank u so so much :,)

awe wow thank you🥲🫶

haha well i can definitely say i’ve never heard of the root thing😂 you’ll hear a lot of people speculate on what will happen but a lot of what i heard was never even true lol but i say go for it! u make friends within different greeklife organizations & get to go to different events/functions that peeps not in greeklife can really go to! rushing is a blast but make sure you mentally prepare yourself for long days. other than that just have fun w it n don’t take urself too seriously! it’s such an exciting experience especially when the diff sisterhoods chant ur group in. at my school, after rush and before initiation there were so many mini events celebrating new members. we had this thing where 2x a week all of greeklife would hang in this ballroom n the new members would be chanted in. then there’s also homecoming and the fraternities will ask a sisterhood in a cute way. lol that’s a lot but point being it’s such a unique experience i’d encourage everyone to try! if u don’t like it u don’t have to join a sisterhood and you would have still made friends with others in ur rush group. greeklife is legit a mini high school but it is also one of those things that what u put into it u get out. lmao ok thank u for coming to my ted talk

Ohhh, if you don’t have social media (especially insta) that may disqualify you from being bid on… Many sororities have a stipulation that members need to post certain things related to the sorority, like needing to post big events, posting fundraising/philanthropy announcements, etc. Like sororities will require 3 posts and 5 stories per semester related to the sorority on IG for example. There’s also kind of an unofficial expectation that sororities will expect potential new members to have “aesthetic” social media feeds… I don’t think they say that this is required, but it’s an open secret that they definitely will check potential new member’s social media pages as part of the processes. Again I don’t think they’ll admit this, but it definitely does happen, and not even having social media may be a bit of a strike against you. You may need to get insta for rush and have at least one or two “cute” posts there as well and get as many followers as you can (follower count is also one of those “unofficial” things they check, you’ll notice that the girls at the most wanted sororities always have at least 1,000 followers on Instagram). I know this is kinda weird but that’s just the way it is these days. Just something to think about.

lmaooo a mood, i love it😂

Yes! It doesn't matter at all! It's just a way for them to gather more info on you, but its unofficial and not required

i think it just depends but having an organization (esp if u take a leadership role) looks great on ur resume ! you get to click with ppl u resonate with & build a social network too. with my sorority, there were a lot of resources that helped me prepare for my future career !

ayyeeee

aoe 🌿🤍

awe yay best of luck to u, babe ! so from what i remember, each sorority has a quota (if u will) of how many girls they can take in per semester soooo it depends on how big of a school you go to, how many sororities are offered there, how many peeps are rushing, & each sororities’ quotas. it is possible but it wasn’t common at my school. basically if u don’t get a call from phc before bid day then ur straight ! i wouldn’t worry ab it tho, if ur outgoing & make some good connections you’ll get a bid somewhere. chin up, u got this !!!

i would make the account public until recruitment ends :)

If u haven’t been initiated at your first school, you can go thru Rush at your new school. If you’re already an initiated member you won’t be able to go thru Rush at your new school. You affiliate to the chapter you are an initiated member of at your new school

that's a good question ! i'm not 100% sure but I believe it's because although not every country has greek life, the philanthropy for each sorority (and/or fraternity) isn't limited to just providing aid/service/donations/etc to the US but to other countries as well. im not an expert in the whole international realm but that would be my best answer !

Canada and the Philippines.

Nope, bids (at most schools) are done through a computed algorithm. Each chapter has their bid list and a PNM may be high on multiple lists, but the PNM will only get one bid (if they’re high up on lists, it’s likely their own first choice)

aoe🌿

As a black brunette who is super average and worked at Wendy's when I was initiated... You're wrong but continue lol

bros never heard of a club before

hey !!

good luck & have fun !!!!
