rushing as a sophomore

Yes, but I would highly suggest rushing. You might feel like you're missing out Freshman year because most of your friends will have sorority stuff to do all the time!-- You don't want to feel left out.

It would be better if you just went ahead and rushed. There will be 50-90 freshman in your pledge class trying to adjust and it's easier to go through it together. It builds a better bond, pretty much one of the biggest reasons we rush.

I contemplated the same thing when I was a freshman but going through recruitment and joining a sorority made my adjustment SO MUCH EASIER! You have a constant support system AND moving in a week early you really build a bond with your gamma chi group which will be the girls living in your dorm this year. Sororities actually have a higher GPA than general UK students. You will be encouraged to work hard in the classroom, volunteer, and get involved in other clubs too.

You should 100% rush this year! I say this because adjusting to college is hard for everyone, and it will be made 1 million times easier by having 200+ sisters by your side who want nothing more than to see you succeed and have the best college experience possible.
