Will I have less options as a legacy
by: 2025 PNMIs it true that if I’m a legacy of a chapter at the school other sororities will automatically drop me because they assume I will want the house I’m a legacy of? I am nervous about this and wondering if I should even disclose it on the application. I like my sister’s sorority but want to be open minded and find my perfect fit as well.

You don't need to mention your legacy status to anyone, including other pnm's. If someone knows, they know, nothing to be done about it. If anyone, and I do mean anyone at all, asks you if you are a legacy somewhere, you can say yes but you are going in with a totally open mind, and say as little as possible as politely as you can.

Also, 'stealing' someone's sister from another house is considered something of a coup.

It depends. If you have an in house sister, then yes, legacy will hurt you. Everyone will know even if you don’t tell. If you are a legacy through somewhere else and you didn’t go to high school with anyone at Bama, then people will only know if you tell.

The benefit of a mom/sister legacy in any sorority is it establishes a family tradition of staying active through graduation, which sororities want. The cost and expectations are understood. So it is not a bad thing. You have to find a tactful and positive way in the other houses to say you loved hearing about greek life from your sister but you are very much your own person and want to find your own way. That is diplomatic and signals you are open to other houses.

legacy only plays a role like #that if you make it seem ur only interested in ur sister’s house. then yeah everyone will drop u for not being open minded….. why waste an invite on someone who doesn’t wanna be there?
but otherwise my house has bid members who had active sisters in other houses so it depends on the fit :)
