was a pledge
by: former TRI deltI just needed to put this out this out there. I did get a bid from Tri Delt during rush last year. After I month in, I dropped out, I realized I did not fit into this house, as my patients did not make 6, 7 or 8 figures. My Mother is business manger and my dad is a mechanic. I was not bullied by anyone at the house, I did not have the bank accounts that the other girls had . I was not initiated and I am plan on going through RUSH again. YOU NEED TO HAVE MONEY TO FIT INTO THIS HOUSE.
#1 by: what? I am not surprised
My room mate is DDD, her parents are very wealthy... she said lots of the girls in the house come from money, and if we don't have any, it puts you in a weird situation with the other girls..... I am not sure if they put you down, but you will be included in a lot of things they end up doing?
#2 by: what?
I am in tri delt and I am going into my junior year. I have bright futures and wouldn't normally be able to pay dues but I found a way to make it work. We have a great payment plan that really helps. I think it's totally okay to say you didn't fit in but I have never felt like I didn't fit in because of my money situation. So many girls in tri delt don't come from money and use left over bright futures to pay for it or work to pay for it. One sister even works two jobs to help take the burden off her parents. I love my sisters and no one treats you differently based on the amount of money you have.
#3 by: I got this same vibe
I do not like the TRI DELT house.... I got the same vibe and dropped out. If you do not have money, you will not fit in.... trust me....it will not be pleasant..... I re-rushed I dropped out two years ago, rushed again, and I now am in KD, and I love the KD's...... I still am not rich, but it does not matter where I am now.

I'm in PC15 and come from a middle class family. We have a beautiful house which does mean our dues are sometimes expensive. I don't ask my friends in other houses about their dues because I don't feel it's my business. However, the point that girls are obsessed with money and look down on those who are not as wealthy as them is completely ridiculous! I have NEVER been made to feel bad about money or clothes or anything like that, and I really dislike pretentious people so I would've dropped right away. Yes, there are girls who come from money (as is the case in a number of houses), but these are my sisters and we care about each other as people not for how trendy their clothes are or how rich we think their parents might be. It almost makes me laugh when I see people from other houses trying to explain what the dynamic is like in a house they aren't a part of...
#9 by: NO WAY
I'm in Tri delta, and I'll have you know that I work and pay to be in this chapter. Girls respect that and admire it. Our chapter is economically diverse... I'm not the only one working. Also, we have plenty of scholarships and other forms of financial support for girls so we can include all of our sisters we love.
We choose girls for their personalities! I wore JC Penney and Forever 21 (no joke) all throughout rush. I've never even owned something from Lilly, and I didn't wear any designer clothes while rushing ever! And here I am, a Tri delta.
Secondly, this is not a post from a Tri delt. If you drop from a sorority after accepting a bid, you CANNOT RUSH AGAIN. It's Panhellenic rule. So I don't know who is trying to pull this and why, but stop trying to stereotype us. We don't put down other people / chapters, and would appreciate it if we were treated with a little respect. Everyone deserves it. These rumors are beyond false and because so many of our girls work jobs in Gainesville and at home, it hurts to see that people try to typecast our whole chapter.
