appearance?

You just need to look like you care. Don’t show up in Nike shorts and tennis shoes

Look isn't everything but it's your first impression. I know a lot of girls who got really good houses that aren't very conventionally pretty but are very smart with great personalities instead! Wear skirts or nice shorts, like denim, and make sure you look put together! Make sure to have on a full face of makeup and do your hair, even if it's just straight, make sure it looks like you put in effort. As long as you put in effort, houses won't really care if you aren't the cutest. Connections are very important in rush, so you are going in with a disadvantage. Make sure to have cute rush packets and good photos, make them look like they were proffesionally done! Also, make sure your insta is cute!
