What should PNMs know before rush

Sororities: anything that’s not kkg/pi phi is fine and you will have a good experience.

Frats: You will need strong connections and money for big 4 and chi psi. Outside of that you should aim for upper mid and mid tier houses (snu, sig chi, chi phi, pika, pikapp, ato). Ksig, sae, and Aepi are also decent options. Anything after that is probably not worth your time.

being in pi phi is WAY better then being in kkg, they’ve def stepped it up

I have never understood why UNC houses go after each other like it's a sport. They pile on a house without realizing? caring? that they might be next. It happened to DZ, Phi Mu, Tri Sig, and the cycle keeps going. Why? Is it fun? Maybe stop? I think there's room for everybody at the party.

Here’s the best advice you can get: go where you feel loved and can see yourself spending considerable time. Every house is a massive time commitment and monetary investment in general, and you do not want to pay to be miserable❤️ alumni networks and true friends last longer than the popularity contest in college does

1. being in a sorority is fun and it might seem like "everyone" is rushing but UNC has more people that aren't in greek life. this is not bama and you can still have a wonderful social life (maybe even better) if you make friends outside of greek life
2. when you are going through rush don't feel bad if houses drop you earlier on. You would rather get dropped from a house during the first two days rather than get to know them and feel a false sense of security just to not be offered a bid
3. rush is a numbers game. active members will advocate for girls they went to school with, their sisters, cousins, family friends, etc. that doesn't even include girls who had moms that were in these sororities. after all those spots are filled, there are only a maybe 30-20 spots left for girls that have no connections to the sorority. it's ok if you get dropped because ultimately you can only join one chapter
4. be nice and friendly at EVERY house you go to. your GXs and PJBs will be watching how you act and if they see you have a bad attitude that will not make you look good
5. have fun, be nice, and make friends during rush even if you don't join a chapter!

Literally don’t listen to the negative things on Greek rank about any chapter. The only purpose of these message boards are for girls to anonymously tear eachother down and inflate their own chapter. Remember that the slander of certain chapters, especially bc zetas and pi phis seem to live on Greek rank, is just an attempt to make other chapters look better. Follow your heart and everything else will fall into place. No chapter is going to be social suicide, every chapter mixes with frats, and you will be much happier in a chapter you actually vibe with instead of one that you choose based on reputation

the best advice is to get off this website.
