next year

All 4 of those groups are good at TCU but your mom is right. You should pick the school that feels best. TCU and UT are both great schools but have very different vibes. Visit each a few more times this year and decide which one to attend based on the overall college experience.

Also, you say that you are a legacy to 4 groups. Confirm that that is true. Grandmothers are not considered legacy relationships by some sororities now, and I don't think any of the ones that you listed have aunts or cousins as official legacy status. Of course even if those family members don't make you an official legacy, which grants you special considerations in the early rounds of recruitment, it would still be a special bond to share with any of them. But always good for you to know which groups you are considered a legacy to, and which ones are simply family connections.

Once you get to college chose the sorority that is the best fit for you, no matter who, or if, it is a legacy chapter and through which relative. Those 4 groups have different personalities at TCU, so you should find your fit and not base in on a relative. Also, as a friendly heads up: most of those groups will have tons of legacies come through. Legacy status will not guarantee you a bid, and legacies do have to be released because there are often more of them than spots available in the new member class. This applies at UT too, especially with the groups that you listed.

Good luck!

Definitely listen to wise frog. Sororities are different everywhere and you should make your first decision on which school you feel good about. Do some research and visits and make the choice that's right for you.
If you do come to TCU the Greek life is great! Every house here is good and going through rush can be tough. Being a legacy doesn't always get you automatically in but it is helpful especially in the first round or two. Gamma phi is a wonderful sorority at TCU. They have good grades and are involved. It's a pretty good mix of girls. Social, but focused.
You will find the home for you no matter the school or the sorority but always keep an open mind.

If you were to come to TCU and rush Gamma Phi, you would not be disappointed, trust me. They're super well rounded and sweet:) But I would first decide on the school you want to go to!

As someone just starting out and just coming through recruitment I agree with the others. The school atmosphere here is much different from UT. I love the smaller campus and conservative feel. There are so many opportunities to get involved on campus which is harder at a huge school like UT.
Gamma Phi was one of my favorites during recruitment. They are welcoming, smart and seem to have a strong campus presence. If TCU is the right school for you then you will not be disappointed by GPB.

You sound pathetic. Really pathetic.

Wise frog has good advice. You first need to find out which college is the best fit. If you do come here all the houses you named are good houses. Good luck to you and do not let anyone make you feel bad for trying to become informed.

All the houses you mentioned are highly respected and were wanted during recruitment. Being a legacy will guarantee that you get a second party invite back so that you and the house members get to know each other better. You will find TCU to be much warmer and because it is smaller you can really get to know people and become involved. I think the mean post on here are not even TCU students. If they are, I am grateful I have not experienced anyone with their attitude. Do not let a troll dissuade you from choosing TCU.

These universities are drastically different. Greeks at UT are an extremely small percent of the population. The recruitment at UT is extremely competitive. It's very competitive at TCU, but not as, well, divisive. I loved UT and my sorority there. I had a great experience. I wanted a giant school as I love big city life and all it offers. But I would have also loved the closeness a smaller TCU offers. Your major and what you want out of life -- is first.
At either school you are likely not to get the house that you "think" you want before rush begins. The personality of the chapter changes with each school.

Please don't go here. You sound entitled and we have enough people here like that.

Texas is a much better school and greek life there is great....nice, big houses, super selective rush, all girls have top grades, all are economically blessed to afford the dues, sisterhood, the whole package. No comparison. Most people who go to TCU couldn't/wouldn't get into UT, so if you want prestige (don't we all?!) along with all of the other benefits, go for TEXAS....it's Big Time all the way around .
