legacy

by: Pnm

I'm a legacy. My mother was a GammaPhi at another university. My friends are telling me not to list that because I will get cut from other sororities and that gammaPhi is a bottom tier house.. Just wondering if this is true? I have a 3.7 gpa and very active in high school (cheerleader, tennis team,choir, etc.). Will that help? Please answer.

Each chapter is different about what they look at in membership selection. In the two years I have been through recruitment as an active the only time I remember any dicussion about legacy status to another chapter coming up was when the girl had an older sister who was an active in a chapter. So not an issue probably if you like other chapters better than GPhi.

I will say this: The previous poster is correct. You pretty much identified yourself to the chapters/recruitment chairs. Your post shows very poor judgment on your part (bashing a sorority before you have even met them). Some people might call GPhi "lower tier," but they have some really great girls. I have made several good friends in that chapter through other activities, as have other girls in my house.

Because of the way recruitment is done ("RMF") we have to release/cut a percentage of girls each round. Because a lot of girls have great grades, lots of activities, etc., any negativity associated with a PNM can get her cut (particularly by the "top tier" chapters that have to make the biggest cuts early on). You just gave most chapters a reason to cut your early on. Sorry.

Hope you learn from this.

I was not calling Gamma Phi Beta a bad house or bad mouthing them. My friends told me that. Thanks for helping me make up my mind about rush... NOT signing up. Good luck to Gamma Phi Beta during recruitment.
