rushing as a sophomore

TONS of girls rush as sophs. it sometimes can be better to rush as a soph because you're a little more sure of yourself and stuff (sorry freshmen!).
no matter what year you are when you rush, EVERYONE has an extremely good chance of getting a bid from one of the sororities. trust me. might not be the one you wanted at first but....it's a bid.

It honestly doesn't really lessen your chances by that much, I rushed as a freshman and did get a bid but wasn't comfortable accepting it, then rushed again and got a bid from a different chapter and joined. I got the most amount of chapters back each round, and like half of the girls in my group were sophomores too. Out of my pledge class of 70+ girls, around 25 of us were sophomores. At least here at UD I wouldn't worry about rushing as a sophomore, you still have a really good chance to join a sorority you'll love!

No it doesn't hurt your chances.
