which sorority?
by: Incoming FreshmenI'll be rushing this fall and I'm super excited but I wanted to get some background on the sororities. I'm a legacy for Gamma Phi Beta (mom), Chi Omega (sister), and Alpha Chi Omega (sister). Can you guys give me any advice on the reputation of these sororities at FSU and what their tiers are? I want to keep my options open during recruitment but I would also love to be a legacy somewhere.

Totally agree. I went through rush years and and years ago as a sophomore who appreciated partying waaay too much. I knew the minute I walked into my house that it was for me. I managed to amp up my grades and excelled in law school. Your gut/Higher Power will give you your answer.

legacy does matter to a lot of sororities. Some girls get bids simply because they have sisters in it. But to be completely honest, this doesn't mean you belong in that sorority. Actually, you will probably end up unhappy if you pick because of this. You have to pick in terms of the one you feel most at home at among the 17 different chapters. It's cheesy, but trust your heart

This is not true. No girls "get bids simply because they have sisters in it." Only if a pnm has a sitting sister in a chapter is it almost guaranteed (almost), but just being a legacy is really nothing anymore, especially if the legacy is not specific to the chapter. And most nationals have dropped their legacy courtesy requirements so that chapters can select their membership as they see fit. A legacy can get cut first round now, you have to be desirable on your own merits just like every other pnm.

This is a troll. There is no 'we' or 'us' because you aren't in a sorority here, it's just you on your own, pretending on greekrank.

please please please do not think about this stuff during recruitment. go into it with no predispositions and just try to make friends with everyone you talk to. don't try to impress them or be who you think they want you to. this is about friends and I promise if you consider anything but who YOU truly vibe with, it wont go well. the best possible thing you can get out of being in a sorority is YOUR people but it only works if you're you

If your legacy status comes from somewhere else and not a chapter here, it will not matter in the least. Chapters here could fill whole houses with just legacies and that's why it really doesn't count any longer. You are in for a BAD recruitment with a tier mindset, especially coupled with legacy in your brain. Forget both and you will do much better.
