oos-sorority

There is so much wrong with what you are asking. Having recs will not help you get a bid, but not having them will get you dropped. Your lack of recs will end up making you cry when a house you love and where you had great conversations and felt so at home ends up dropping you because you didn't bother with a rec for them. Most girls will have a rec for each house so not having a rec is a very easy drop for us. Here is something posted on here a while ago:
"You can't go through recruitment on here. First, the houses do the choosing not the PNM's. You don't get to pre-decide your house from greekrank and then go join that house. Second, you just described the majority of girls in every single house. Third, if you want to rely on what random people write on this pathetic site and can't make up your own damn mind about who you fit with in real life then you need to stay in high school."

Get your Recs but the more average sororities with girls who have less drama, don’t go crazy when they’re out, care about grades a lot, in general more of a mix of girls and not known for looks or partying are Tri Delt, AOPi, AXO, DG. Tri Delt you need a rec for, and maybe the others. But again, there is a good chance these sororities will all drop you because they will have girls they know they want, so do not limit yourself to them. Just wait for rush and by the middle of recruitment week you’ll know which ones you like. As stated a lot, the sorority picks you, you don’t pick them in the end, even though you will be told the decisions are mutual.

My mom has written recs for several people who throw out a request on Facebook. So, start there and have your mom and her friends repost it. You would be surprised how many people will offer to help you out. There are some sororities that will drop you if you don’t have a rec, it’s required to have one by National. It doesn’t matter how much they love you and really want you. Sure, there are stories of girls who didn’t have a rec and they found someone to write it, but that’s few a far between. My advice is put forth the effort. Also, know that wherever you end up, you will find your people. I honestly think all the sororities here are good and have really great girls in them. Good luck!

I didn't know anyone in sororities either, but my mom found two from ladies she works with, and one of them happened to know a bunch more and hooked me up. I did a lot of phone calls and coffee meetings, but I got my Recs. Good luck to you, check everywhere, and have your parents/grandparents do the same.
