Rushing as a sophomore?

by: Question

I rushed this year, but I ended up dropping. I want to join a sorority in the spring, but I know that’s not super common, so I may want to rush as a sophomore. What are the disadvantages of rushing as a sophomore? I know it’s only September but I’m super nervous about this whole process in general and I feel like I’m missing out by not being in a sorority:(

Your GPA as an upperclassman will be very important so make it good, and who you know in houses will also be super important. Also try to get involved in something this year so you will be seen as someone who is active and contributes. Your high school resume has gone out the window as a soph and you need to start building it again. Also get recs. Be prepared for similar cuts as your last formal rush unless you know people in houses.

Hey! I rushed as a sophomore and felt like I had an advantage during the rush process! As a sophomore, you already know about campus and you kind of already know who you are as a person, so it’s easier to find the sorority you feel you fit in best. You’ll most likely always have at least school to talk about with the girls doing recruitment so that’s something. Also, you’ll most likely have friends in sororities that may push for you, although for me I chose and found a home where none of my friends are at! The only possible disadvantage is that once you find your home, it may be harder to bond with your pledge class since most of them will be freshman, especially if you live off of campus, but you definitely still will bond with them! Hope this helps!

Also to add, I had no friends in the sorority I’m in, I didn’t get any recs lol whoops, and I still ended up in a house that’s considered higher tier (which actually means absolutely nothing. Go to the house where you feel you belong) but still!
