rushing a sorority as a sophomore

by:    

What are peoples opinions on rushing a sorority as a sophomore? I wanted to rush freshman year but I didn't think I would have enough time with my major. After talking to some girls in sororities they encouraged me to rush this fall. Is it harder to get a bid if you are older? The sororities I was thinking about were AXO SK and ChiO.

honestly most girls go through as sophomores! its very common for pledge classes to be comprised of mostly sophomore! AXO you will almost 100% get a bid no matter what and SK and Chi O you have a decent chance a sophomore

This year most of the sororities had at least 1/3 of their pledge class being sophomores. Since most chapters don't do spring recruitment, it's a lot more common for sophomores to rush if they didn't their first semester. Chi o and Sk both have to cut a lot of girls because of how many want them, and axo had higher interest this year too so remember to go in with an open mind about all the chapters and you'll find the one that's right for you. Being a sophomore won't make you any less likely to get a bid though

Rushing as a sophomore is entirely encouraged, as someone mentioned, there were a ton of sophomores entering Fall '15 pledge classes. This might have been because formal recruitment was so early last year and the girls who were freshmen there were hesitant to rush right off the bat. You should have no problem getting a bid from AXO, there were a ton of sophomores last year. Other sororities have to make many cuts because they are popular among PNMs, but always keep your options open and do not go into recruitment banking on a certain sorority to avoid any disappointments. You'll end up where you're supposed to be.

Formal recruitment was actually very late during fall 15. It didn't occur until October. With this year being so early, the turnout of sophomores will probably be even bigger because like you said, freshman are hesitant so early

Yeah, that's what I meant, the ones that didn't rush their year (2014) rushed this year as 2015s.

Each chapter you mentioned is very different, try to experience them all by going into recruitment with open eyes

Not really, basically SK is the best version of those three houses, then chi o is the second best of this type of house (preppyish, classier, etc) like girls who didn't get a bid from SK but are still good girls & AXO is the leftovers of the two mostly

So many sophmores go thru rush!!!! AXO guaranteed bid, chi o more selective & SK most selective. Still, if you go in & be yourself, you'll for sure get a bid from where you're meant to be, don't limit yourself to those chapters!
