1st round
by: JTHow many houses does the average person get cut from after the 1st round? I'm just trying to figure out what to expect for my daughter. I realize it is different for everyone.

It'll just depend on how personable she is and what her resume is like. If she's very personable with a great resume she will more than likely have a full schedule everyday. However, if her Gpa is low, not personable etc. she could only go to 4 or 5 houses on round 2 instead of the full 10. I think it says something about it in the recruitment book. Something like not many PNMs will have a full schedule everyday?

If a pnm EVER asked me that I would cut them so fast it's not even funny. Avoid talking about partying, alcohol, or boys. That's one of the top unspoken rules from recruitment. (But really, please don't. I honestly feel bad for you if you think that's a good question to ask)

But I want him to become a SigEp brother so I am willing to use this year to join a sorority close to SigEp so that I can use that to help him next summer. I have the perfect picture in my head and think it would be good to get him out of his social shell.

I think you are just on here to cause drama. Please go back to high school and grow up.

Honestly I'm guessing you will want to look at ZTA. But you should really make up your own mind. If he's still in high school and you're going to be here, then that's a lot of time for things between you to change.

I hang out at SigEp a lot and the girls I see the most are from ZTA, Gphi, KD and Theta. Prolly in that order
These are all good sororities so it you get into any you should be happy

Responding to the original question--
Tell your daughter to expect that every round, 50% of the houses she visits will cut her. Maybe more.
The important thing is that on pref day, there's at least one chapter left that she would like to join. The others-- whether they liked her or didn't like her-- matter not at all.

First of all your child is an adult and it's time for you as a parent to let her experience college by herself. And please don't come to a gossip site as a parent to ask for advice.
Just wait and see how many she gets cut from. There is no average because everyone is a different person and the houses they get called back to are based on them as an individual.

The honest answer is that there will be girls that every house wants but when she shows a preference some houses take offense to that a do not feel she wants to be in their house so they cut her.
On the other end, there are girls who get cut by certain top houses regardless of what she wants because they do not feel she's a fit.
Bottom line. Most girls have 2 maybe 3 options at the end and they usually choose the house that makes them feel the most wanted

The answer above is pretty honest, but the real thing is that you shouldn't be asking for real answers to an unknowable question. Especially not on a gossip site. Ask some of your friends what happened when their daughters went through. Still, that's no real answer as to what will happen with your daughter. You just need to be patient.

There is no average pnm. Each girl has a different combo of assets and liabilities. Grades, reputation, looks, connections, recs, activities, community service, leadership, talents, etc. You never know what a house is looking for. Do they need singers and dancers? Do they need to bolster their gpa? etc. The fact that your daughter isn't high enough on the list to get an invitation to the next round doesn't mean they didn't like her. It just means she wasn't a fit for what they needed.

Sororities are putting together a well rounded team, not a little clique of girls. When they talk about being a good fit, it means that their house has a need and it's something that you can fill well. Plus that you are easy to get along with and seem to be a fun person to hang out with.

I wouldn't ask at all. Don't base any decision on a boyfriend's plans. This is your rush. Choose a house that you love and that you would enjoy being a part of. Your boyfriend may not even pledge Sig Ep and you all may not even being dating then.
