Two things I want to put out here: 1. Plenty of PNMs do not feel like they’re an immediate perfect fit for the chapter they join. In fact, many don’t feel at home until they’re well into the pledging process. Even my own sorority’s President wasn’t sure our chapter was for her until big little. All relationships require work, they’re not always glitter and pop music and not everyone “just knows” when they walk through the door. This is a big problem with the way recruitment is marketed, so it’s important to be realistic and keep an open mind. 2. What did you change about yourself between the first and second times you rushed? Did you improve your GPA, get more involved on campus, or get to know more active sisters? One of my close friends from freshman year went through recruitment as a freshman, didn’t get past sisterhood with her favorite chapter, and dropped out to try again her sophomore year. The chapter was a “top” sorority, but she got a stellar GPA, was involved and social, and got to know actives in the chapter she wanted and got a bid from them her sophomore year through formal. If you don’t do anything to improve yourself as a PNM and just go through again as a sophomore, you’re already shooting yourself in the foot since sophomores are less desirable. Tl;dr try informal if you really want to be in a sorority, or just don’t join a sorority. It’s not the end of the world.
