rushing sophomore year

Or worse. Unless you change something dramatically like make tons of super close friends in one house who will pull for you, become very well known for your involvement, etc. Freshman year first time rushing is usually the best chance. If you drop out now, be prepared to never be in a sorority at all.

I rushed again and ended up in Theta this year. It is a lot easier as a sophomore because of sophomore quotas!

There are a ton of girls that we rush and are not disliked for it.
They spend their freshman year bonding with actives and those actives bring thlose sophs right into the house that the sophomore wants.

I know a girl who went azd her freshman year, re rushed and ended up in PiPhi as a soph. She was the Hispanic girl who was an equestrian from a small Central Texas town. She's not at the school anymore.

There are plenty of re rushers that go from bottom to top every year. Another girl got nothing good as a freshman and went Chi Omega as a sophomore. She's from Friendswood. happens all the time.

If you make the effort to meet people your freshman year, you will likely have a successful rush your sophomore year - with more houses in later rounds. I only know one person who did not have a good rush her sophomore year. Four I know had great sophomore year rushes and got the house of their choice.
