sophomore spring/fall rush

yeah anyone will to be honest. This gets done at the best of greek life schools (Bama, Ole Miss, Georgia etc.)

definitely rush and don't spend the remainder of your time regretting it that you didn't

Thanks for the positive responses guys! I'm going to spend the rest of the semester learning more about these frats and hopefully meeting some guys to find my best fit. Y'all aiight

tl;dr
Spring Rush? Delt or Pike
Fall Rush and you want a lower gpa/harder pledge process? KA/ATO
Fall Rush general? I suggest Sigma Chi(would say delt but walking to their house is a pain after awhile I'm told)
Party Animal? ZBT/ATO
"Gentle" spring rush? ATO/Phi Delt/Pike


The goal of a mid is to become the top. Therefore, mids need more money and more members so their house can be as prosperous as a top. As long as you aren't weird or stupid and have social skills, you should be able to secure yourself a bid. I've come to this conclusion because of my experience as an "upper mid"(ranking is subjective) officer.

As far as your list goes, EX/KA doesn't spring rush but that's because they take/took PCs of 50+ (fall pledge classes large enough to not need a spring rush). Pike, ATO, and Delt spring rush I believe. If you want a more "legitimate" pledging experience, I would do Delt because a couple years ago they took 30~ in the spring. ATO generally takes smaller pledge classes. Pike isn't bad.

For Fall rush, if you're doing KA and ATO you should expect your GPA to tank unless you're with an endless supply of adderall. Pledging is difficult and degrading. Pike, Delt, and Sigma Chi have difficult pledging, but it's not as degrading. Plus if you do Sigma Chi you'll have 50-70 other brothers to take the punishment with you (MORE PLEDGES = FASTER BUILDS). However, bigger fraternities = more names to memorize.

Also check out Phi delt. They're not bad.

Good luck bud
