Hello! Welcome to CSULB. Recruitment is extremely laid back here. Sorority Recruitment is usually only 3 to 4 days max. You can check out each sorority when they are tabling during week of welcome or greek week. Here's a detailed example of what the process is like. It's kind of long, but here it is. You sign up for Panhellenic recruitment on the university's website, pay a rush fee usually $50-$65. You also are required to attend information night to learn about the different organzations and the recruitment process, dress codes for recruitment, rules, annual payments/ dues for each sorority, you learn what an rho gamma is. Your rho gamma is a sorority member who goes unaffiliated during recruitment and you won't know what sorority she is in. She disaffiliates with her sorority and you can ask her questions about recruitment, ranking houses, basically the process etc .We have the first day of recruitment usually a few days after info night where you meet all eight Panhellenic sororities and go through an interview process/ are greeted with door chants. You rank the sororities based on the ones you liked and the sororities make their first cuts that day. The process for day one usually last from 8a.m.-7p.m. The second day you get invited back to all or some of the houses. You learn about each sorority and their philantrophy ex Alzheimer's research, service for sight etc. You rank usually your top four choices and the sororities cut potential new members. On the third day its preference night you rank two choices and pick your top one. The last day you find out which sorority picked you and you go to rho gamma reveal if you don't have class. On bid day you go at night to your sorority and meet your sisters at parties held for new members usually at their sorority houses. Also Recommendations letters are not requirement only recomemnded even if you are a legacy to a house. A legacy example is your mom, grandmother, or sister is an alum of that sorority. Being a legacy doesn't guarantee a bid. You are not guaranteed a bid when participating. All the sororities cut potential new members and have a limited number of quotas/ avaliable spots for pnms. If you don't receive any bids from all of the eight Panhellenic sororities , You will receive a call from your rho gamma / greek counselor and will be told not to come to bid day. It does happen, but not too many Pnms receive no bids.
