I rushed and got into my second choice sorority. I've tried so hard to give it a chance, but I can only see myself in my first choice sorority. How bad would it be to drop out a week before initiation, and rush again next year?

whatever sorority you are in, you really should make the best of it. The chances of getting your first choice later aren't that good.

It might be too late now, but this goes as a word of caution to LMU ladies for future years:

When I was a freshman I rushed, and on pref I got invited back to both my first- and last- choice sororities. Tons of pressure, right? I got a bid from my last-choice sorority and was crushed, but followed everyone's advice and tried to "make the most of it".

Throughout the semester, I lied to myself, trying to convince myself that I was having a good time. In reality I was miserable and just didn't "click" with my sisters. When we hung out, I (and other girls, too) relied on alcohol to try to make the social aspect of it more enjoyable. Newsflash: sisters should NOT need alcohol to tolerate each other. That sorority just wasn't where I belonged and I knew it deep down since rush. Eventually I got initiated, still hoping that it would work out. BAD DECISION. 2 semesters later I dropped. Having already been initiated into a chapter, I could no longer join any other sororities.

Looking back, I wish I had followed my heart and declined my bid in the hope of later joining my top-choice sorority, a service org, or another organization. I would have been much happier. The moral of the story? Trust your gut instinct!

I hear ya, but the reality is that if your "first choice" dumped you as a freshman, they probably wouldn't have taken you as a sophomore. I'm not trying to be harsh, but it is true.

This late in the game everyone knows you as an X girl.
The other house will probably avoid using a bid on you since you have a history of not seeing things thru.

If you first choice has room and opens up COB then you might have a shot.
