Informal Rush (plz be honest)

by: Pnm

How likely are you to get a bid from informal? And which chapters are doing informal?

Your best chance for a sorority bid is formal rush. The term 'informal' is misleading because it makes it seem like there is a secondary rush right after rush. Not the case. Who does it depends on how the numbers shake out after bid day. Chapters that are not at Total can offer a few more bids but the odds are against you getting one and the stronger a rush a house has means the fewer spots they will have, if any. A house that released you early in the process is not likely to turn around and offer you a bid. Stay in the process and belong to a sorority and a lifelong sisterhood, and don't do it for tiers or ranks or pairings or based off of anything a stupid frat boy tells you.

Were you cut due to grades? Or do you mean you were dropped by all your top houses? Because it is super rare for a girl to get dropped from all houses unless something is wrong.

Also, ASA does informal after recruitment ends. Their girls are so sweet so check them out

girls DO get bids during both spring and fall informal. Not all houses will participate tho as only those that haven't met quota or have more space in the house will offer more bids...might be 1-3 houses from EACH tier Either way, yes, you have a chance. Good luck!

Recruitment at IU is rough. Informal is not a practical alternative for most PNMs who are cut or drop out so I don't want to give you false hope. It's typically (but not always) for girls who just missed the cut at the very end. There are some houses that participate in COB right after formal recruitment ends and that might be an option worth considering if you really want to be involved in greek life.

It depends on how close u were to getting asked back to the chapters that cut you..(which u really have no way of knowing) Consider more than just your top tier houses and u will have a better chance.. in the end being a part of any sorority is worth it if you are in it for sisterhood and fun vs rankings. There are fun, beautiful, kind people in every chapter (too much of iu recruitment is who u know vs who u are)

It’s very unlikely to get a bid during informal rush. Most houses only have a few bids to give out and it’s usually girls who they know tbh
