So I feel like I can’t go to my Pi chis because I’m pretty sure their in both the sororities I don’t like and I don’t want to offend anyone or have it be awkward but I only got 4 houses back and none of them were ones that I wanted. I went back for round 2 with an open mind and I can see myself in 2 of them but the other two, not so much. I didn’t have good conversations, I just felt uncomfortable. And in comparison to the other two, I just really didn’t like them. I’m just so nervous because how can I make my voice heard for who I feel comfortable with and which houses I want if I don’t have enough houses on my list to vote for which ones I don’t want to go back to? Should I try to make it obvious that I’m uncomfortable if I get asked back to the houses I don’t connect with? And what if I only get those houses back? Should I stick it out or just try to rush again next year? Help me plz

I only got four houses back too (DZ, GPB, AXiD, and PiPhi) and I was really disappointed for a little while because I loved AXO and KD, but I stuck it out for round two and I really like DZ and hope it works out! I wouldn't be purposefully awkward but instead try to be your best at all of the houses, because it just reflects better on you
Good luck!

Your pi chis are there to help you! They have been trained to be unbiased!! When I went through recruitment my pi chis helped me make a lot of tough choices and really helped me find the house that I was supposed to be in!! Keep an open mind about the houses and trust your pi chis!!! All of the houses are great in their own way, and the process works!

What if it doesn’t? They said you have to sign something after pref that says you’ll keep your bid no matter what. But what if it’s for a house I didn’t like?

You can drop from recruitment at any time before signing the MRBA, including/after pref. If after pref, you do not like your house, you CAN drop w/o committing to a sorority and don't sign the MRBA. You only sign that form if you decide to continue on through bid day, and that commits you to accepting the bid from one of the houses from pref. If you do not like your houses but still want a bid, you can 1. still go to bid day and see if you like the house after all. You can not get snap bids then, but if you decide to drop that sorority before their initiation you can still do later spring/fall rushes. 2. you can drop and hope to get a snap bid or later bid from a sorority that dropped you. This is RISKY and I do not recommend this. I'm not you, so I can't tell you what to do. 4 houses is better than what a lot of girls had- you've spent less than an hour in each house total and talked to 2-4 girls out of hundreds, so you should still give them a chance. Don't be rude to get dropped- but be honest if you aren't comfortable. Trust the process, it's old and repetitive but it DOES work. My current sorority was not my favorite in round 1, but I ranked them first by round 3 and am so happy now.

Tell the sorority they are your number 1 house!!!! It will make a difference if they know that.
