sorority legacy question

The fact that your mom graduated from Clemson will NOT hurt your chances at all! Don't worry even a little bit. Being a legacy from any university will definitely help you in the process. It will not get you a bid on its own, but it will give you special consideration. Unless someone in another sorority knows your family, chances are that no other sororities other than the one your mom pledged will know that you're a legacy. Like say you are a legacy for tri delt--chi o probably won't have any idea that you are a legacy for tri delt. The only time assumptions sometimes end up being a problem is when a PNM's actual sister is an active member in a certain chapter on campus (making her an in house legacy)--then sometimes sororities will assume the PNM will go with her sister's sorority and may not consider her as strongly as a candidate. But it sounds like you have nothing to worry about! Just be yourself and you will find the right home!

Don't PNMs have to put any sorority affiliations on the registration form they fill out? If so, then all the other chapters will know she is a legacy of a certain sorority.
