recruitment cuts

Ohh ok thank u! Is it possible to only have 1 house left after philanthropy? If so, would u still even get a bid?

Yeah it’s possible but don’t stress out because if you have 4 or 5 or even 3 - t’s way more than likely that you’ll get at least 2 houses that want you back. If you only have 1, which sometimes happens and is completely okay, just don’t blow the conversation. Some people suicide bid intentionally and that’s a whole different story on likelihood of bids. DO. NOT. Suicide. Bid.

Ok thank u! But is it possible to only have one house left after philanthropy or do most girls have 2? I heard almost every girl gets a bid

It’s possible but you’ll more than likely get a bid if that occurs as long as you can hold a conversation and look presentable. You really have to blow it (talk about the wrong things, be rude, look like you came straight out of bed, poor gpa, or whatever) to not get a bid. It’s harder to not get a bid than it is to get one.

All houses will take sophomores. But some are more selective on how many they take. (:
From what I have seen.... (Correct me if I’m wrong)
Phi Mu & Delta Phi Epsilon are pretty selective on how many sophomores they take. Kappa Delta, Alpha Omicron Pi, and Gamma Phi will take a decent amount. Zeta and Alpha Xi will take a good amount because they are relatively newer sororities (Hence why they do Spring recruitment. It’s NOT because they’re “worse” compared to other sororities, seriously all are amazing women here. It’s because they’re newer so they need the numbers to help their chapters grow (: )

Phi Mu is VERY selective with grades. Mainly because of their100% retention rate (Every girl that went through recruitment last year wanted them back the next day after Sisterhood rounds). If you’re great at holding conversations with no awkward silences & you’re pretty you will be ok. But if you really want Phi Mu you need to make sure you’re friends with some of the girls in there. Delta Phi was selective last year (They dropped more girls that who actually ended up wanting them back) which ended up having them have to have continuous open bidding (Calling back girls that dropped out of recruitment because they didn’t like the houses that invited them back or whatever).

im sorry disregard continuous open bidding I meant to say snap bids. so if you want DPHIE you probably have a better chance with it this year because theyre probably going to be more cautious. they are a good sorority here at KSU and it could've happened to literally any sorority, it was just an over-estimation.

Oh and are rec letters necessary for certain sororities? I heard they’re not a big deal at ksu compared to other schools. Would it make a difference if I didn’t have a rec letter?

No prob. And wait until the semester is over so it's accurate because you dont want them to have a different gpa than what you put. I think when I went through recruitment it was optional to put a resume but highly recommended (so I did). I think they asked about clubs and sports in high school, gpa of course, and if your a legacy. Recruitment isnt that serious here but I got rec letters for the 2 houses I really wanted and they ended up being the houses I preffed so I dont think it hurts if you already know someone but Its definitely not necessary like big southern schools.

AND I apologize I know I’m asking a TON of questions, i just don’t wanna be clueless when I register. What would need to be on my resume? And do I add a picture of myself
