PC '27 questions

1. For the most part yes, but they also find room during rush for girls that hadn’t been on the radar before that so I wouldn’t be worried

2. If looks is your main focus, you’re going about this all wrong. Just be authentic because any girl rushing you will see right through a fake personality and you’ll end up exactly where you’re supposed to be

3. Hard question but dirty rush invited aren’t super common just more lowkey hints that they’re probably going to give you a bud. If you’re caught being dirty rushed you could be blacklisted from rush entirely which wouldn’t be fun. Try not to give any definitive answers on a house you would want until pref

4. No. Boulder sororities aren’t that shallow. There’s plenty of girls with different body types in every house, and no house is going to either keep you or cut you solely based on your weight

5. If you have easy access to one, yes. If not, don’t worry too much about it, it would help more to just know active members and have a pre existing relationship with them then a letter of rec would

6. Don’t be fake, don’t reach out to sisters during recruitment, don’t talk badly about any houses before/during recruitment, just have regular conversations like a regular person

7. Try to dress in what you know looks good on you and what you feel confident in, a girl complimenting your outfit could lead to a super good conversation at a house that you wouldn’t have had otherwise.

8. Relax you seem way too wound up about this

My biggest advice for you would be too go into rush with an open mind. There really isn’t that big of a difference between the houses and ranks don’t really mean anything at all. All sorority’s are going to have formals, mixers, socials etc. if you go into rush only wanting the so called “top houses” all you will be is disappointed. Find girls and a house that fits your vibe and personality. Also at Boulder you don’t need to be in a specific sorority or even one at all to get into certain parties or anything so there’s really nothing you’re missing out on in a top house.

U don’t have to lose weight but don’t expect to get into pi phi and aphi if you’re not underweight

it literally doesn’t matter if you get into a “top” house, go into rush with a better attitude and try to leave the high school popularity contest mindset behind. you will be sooo much happier i promise

Every sorority has its own personality focus on where you fit in the best. If you’re joining a sorority just for status you can definitely do that and that’s a completely valid experience. There are certain luxuries to each house and certain pitfalls. I recommend joining a house based on where you laugh, I have met all my best friends from my sorority and I’m super close to my whole family (big, littles, g littles). In terms of recruitment I highly recommend being interested in leadership positions and being on board to live in the house. Wear something sentimental or interesting that can be used in conversation.

I am a senior this year, and I can honestly say that I hang out with girls from other houses as much as I hang out with girls from my own house. Ranks literally do not matter in Boulder.
