sorority rush as a junior?
by: ClassyHey everyone! I am thinking about rushing as a junior and I was wondering if you could possibly share some tips on what I should expect during rush week, and what my chances are of getting in? Thanks!

Some houses will cut you on your age but as long as they like you and you have good grades most should ask you back. I got asked back to Kappa on Wednesday despite being a junior with just average grades. So just be bubbly, outgoing and get your GPA and involvement as high and diverse as you can. Sisterhood isn't about how old you are, it's about how well you fit the group of girls :)

That's what I can't figure out...I was involved at my last university, and in high school, and my grades were above a 3.5. I made it clear I was really excited about greek life and wanted to get as involved as possible, and would love to take on a leadership role if there was any sort of opening for that. I even had a rec from one of my best friends who is a DG at UK (I know they mean more coming from an alum). I was myself during recruitment and felt like I clicked with the girls I spoke with at several houses. I really tried to keep an open mind and had the attitude that whatever house that picked me would be where I belonged. All I can think of is that maybe I should have told them I will be at Mizzou for at least the next two years (because I transferred and I have yet to complete all of my journalism courses). I don't mean to sound like I'm whining...I was just really disappointed that no one seemed to see me as a future sister.

Kind of embarrassed to admit this, but I also rushed SK...and didn't get a bid (not embarrassed that I rushed SK but that I wasn't offered a bid). And I am currently taking spring semester off so I won't be able to COB...maybe I could next year? Anyways I really appreciate all of the advice! Hope everyone's semester is going well :)

Hi! I'm a transfer as junior! I've always liked the thought of joining a sorority but unfortunately my school for the first two years did not have greek life. I'm thinking about joining one now because I feel like I will regret never being part of one later on. I know my options can be slim because of my age but I think it's worth a shot! So I was wondering if you can give me your opinion on what houses might take me? Or what you think is the best option for me to do at this point as a junior?
