sorority standings

by: Repost

This was a super accurate reply on a thread so I'm repostingg it here.

Truth - It’s not a big deal for girls unless this is your high school do-over and you think it really matters. You will stay friends with current friends who end up in different sororities, you will live with your friends as only a handful of officers are in houses, and your social life won’t change much unless you need a sorority to have a social life.

Kappa, Theta, Tri Delt and Pi Phi are top choices for many PNMs with connections or due to reputation/vibe or legacy. All attract the more social or outgoing PNMs along with KD, which while not always the obvious choice is a great sorority.

Chi O is very competitive with a subset of PNMs and does its own thing. Great sisterhood!

Zeta, AXO and ADPi are all strong sororities that attract PNMs who may be slightly less outgoing or connected. Awesome, fun girls.

AOPi girls are more introverted and super sweet.

I also want to add that just because a sorority has a certain reputation or stereotype doesn’t mean that all of the girls will uphold that! Ie. “Shy” or “studious” houses can have super outgoing party girls, and “loud/party” houses can have some quieter or more studious girls. It just won’t be the majority, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t make great friends in any house. I have very close friends in “top”, “middle”, and “bottom” houses and I can honestly say that as mentioned above, tiers etc really don’t matter as much as you think once you’re in a house. If you meet girls you like in a house, that’s amazing and it shouldn’t matter whether they are “top” or not :). And if you don’t feel like you mesh well with girls you talk to, that’s perfectly OK too. You are paying for this after all!

I'll second this! I ended up in a house that isn't top tier and, in general, goes out less but I've never had a problem finding sisters to go out with. I won't lie and say that reputation doesn't matter and won't affect your experience in a house - being in the "top" house definitely is a different experience from being in the absolute "bottom" house. But pretty much everyone at this school has friends in different houses and tiers don't entirely determine everything about your social life. Honestly, ranking and reputation are things to consider if you end up on pref night with two houses that are really different, but I'd encourage people to choose houses they feel comfortable in if they have houses that are even slightly similar. You can find people you mesh with in pretty much every house, even if you didn't love it during recruitment. Just give it some thought, and drop if you really can't make connections because yea it's not worth it to pay dues if you really aren't happy with your house.

It is possible to keep it positive on GR. They all have pros and cons depending on what you’re looking for
