Hi All-
I am a new forum member after lurking for a bit. My daughter will be attending TCU in the fall and going through recruitment. Although I was an active sorority member and also served as GA of my chapter for years, I feel as though it was back in the Stone Age.
We are working on getting our recs lined up. Something that I have stressed is locating girls who are current members of TCU sororities who live in our community and finding out if she has any mutual friends/acquaintances who could make an introduction.
Any advice would be so so appreciated along with any insight into how well non Texas girls fare in recruitment.
My daughter has what I consider to be the basic requirements. High GPA, outgoing personality good community involvement, excellent extra curriculars with leadership positions and OK, not a requirement but she is also a lovely individual inside and out. Unfortunately, if no one knows you going in that may not be enough. Just trying to set expectations.
Thanks so so much!

Hi! I'm a current freshman from California and I love the house I'm in! I feel like I was in your daughter's exact position last year. I knew only one girl from my hometown that was in a sorority at TCU but in my opinion, that doesn't really matter. The best advice I could give your daughter is to be genuinely herself because thats what helps the whole process and puts her in the house that will fit her personality the best. I was the biggest skeptic of how everyone would say, "Trust the system, you'll end up where you're supposed to be" but in all honesty, I feel like I ended up in the perfect house for me. I'm sure she would anyways, but tell her to be kind and respectful to all of the houses even if she doesn't want a particular house, because everyone works so hard for recruitment and she might just end up changing her mind. As long as she is kind and genuine, she will end up in a great house!

Yes the heli moms are here and need to go away.
But this was copy pasted from GreekChat, word for word, so I don't think it's a real post here. Happens a lot- UT Board, Bama board, etc. I think the people who work for this stupid site do that to stir up drama and get clicks.
