engaged/married
by: futurn pnmHi! So I wanted to rush in the fall I'm a junior and my fiancé and I got engaged about 6 months ago and we decided to get married and not tell anyone until we have our actual wedding. Does that hurt my chances of getting a bid, and do I have to say that I'm married... since nobody knows. Thanks!

So you want to start your lifetime of sisterhood with a lie? You won't be able to keep it a secret. I think some sororities may even have rules against married sisters.
Sororities require a big time commitment. Why would you want to take away your limited time with your husband? How's he going to feel when you have to leave him for a mandatory event with a fraternity?
Oh wait. You'll be a junior. It's not like you'd get a bid anyway.

My sorority gives bids to juniors. As do other top tier houses. There's are lots of girls who don't even transfer to UF until their junior year, so obviously these girls want to rush as well. Normally it's not many, but most houses do give bids to upperclassmen. Zeta even have a bid to a senior this year!
That being said, there are many sorority events that require you to be out with fraternity men. I am in a serious relationship with a man outside of greek life, and it makes things very difficult. I'm sure it would be even more so if you're married. But there are also tons of benefits of greek life that you can enjoy while being considerate of your husband!

sure it will be harder to be married and in a sorority.. and of course you'll never live in house, but there are girls that are 1)engaged, 2)married, and 3)in serious relationships in many if not all of the chapters- probably especially in more of the conservative chapters. of course you will be a minority, but if you want to be in a sorority, being married shoudnt hurt you. age is probably more of a negative factor, but again, houses take girls of all ages as well! good luck!

If you really want to rush, i would say go for it. BUT plz remember that a sorority is a commitment and will take time esp. as a new member (after you receive a bid). As far as being married, you're not required to talk about this during recruitment but girls in the houses do research their PNMs---> you WILL be stalk on all types of social media so there's a huge chance they will find out or see that you are in a serious committed relationship. If you do rush, usually boys are off limits to talk about anyways.

I would say keep your options very open as you'll be lucky to get a bid from any house at all.
Your chances would be better if you did spring/informal rush this year as a sophomore...if that is still happening.
If you don't get a bid from informal and formal and a sorority colonizes while you're still on campus, you should go for that one.
Better hope houses that don't have anything against married girls will like you.
