sisterhood

It's not my place to say, and anyone who posts here telling you not to join a house has issues. NOBODY knows what a house's sisterhood is like except members of that house.

I dunno see for yourself. Not our decision on what girls youre gonna like, its yours.

PLEASE do not base your decision on ANYTHING you read on this site. This is the worst of any behavior you will see, with all the cattiness and drama welling up to the top that ordinarily is kept in check. The entire system is amazing, and every single house has a lot going for it. Every single house also has drawbacks. Please wait until you get here, go through formal recruitment, and keep an open mind about the process.

It's not about which houses are the best, it's about which houses will have you. The top houses are extremely selective and if you don't measure up, they won't ask you back. So if you are extremely smart (and preferably qualified for the j-school as a freshman), have loads of honors and activities, have a great personality and are attractive, you might have a chance. Otherwise you might as well just concentrate on studying and make good friends in the dorm.

I know Pi Phi is notorious for purposefully bidding out of state girls because they like being diverse. So you might have a good fit there because they have a lot of girls from all over and it's something they're known to look for. That being said, they aren't terribly involved and don't compete very well. Also they are the stoner house. So just keep that in mind with them.

Ignore what you've heard. Go in with an open mind. You will love or grow to love whatever house you're in including Zeta or Sigma. Don't let the negativity get to you anymore, everything will work out!
