top house choices
by: Average GirlI'm an average girl- cute, not gorgeous, athletic, not model-like, smart but not a valedictorian, good activities but not tons of leadership positions, I don't play an instrument and I can't sing or dance. People tell me I'm very funny and that I have a great personality and could have a conversation with a rock. Do I have a chance with any house let alone a top house? I have a lot of ambition and I would love to be in a sorority, but I don't want to be in a house just to be Greek.

If you have the ambitiion and the drive to be greek and you posess the qualties that an outstanding greek women would have then I don't see why a house wouldn't let you in. If you go into rush thinking you are only average then the house is going to see you as only average and only average houses will end up on your list. Go in confident and knowing that you are a wonderful woman! Trust the system, if a house invites you back then they see something in you and don't take that for granted. Be yourslef and be genuine thats all a house could ask for.

Being on the other side of recruitment every house knows eactly what they are looking for and what qualtities or passions they want their new members to have. Take the summer to figure ot who you are so that when you do go through rush it'll be easier to articulate it to the girls inside the house. Most houses don't want wishy washy girls who don't stand for anything. Even though youmay not have everything figured out I'm sure you have a lot figured out.

On paper there is no reason why many of the houses won't be interested, but you never know. I just don't understand why you have made any sort of decision about rush without spending a minute being involved in the process. That's pretty narrow minded for someone who is about to take the next step in expanding your horizons. I would give every house a chance and keep an open mind. Here's an example. I am a ChiO legacy and fully expected to join that house, if they would have me. I wound up cutting them before the last day because I really couldn't see myself in that house. My top choice was PiPhi and I also went to AXO and ADPi on the last day. I preffed PiPhi, but wound up in one of the other two and am really thrilled about it. I have made great friends and can't wait to live in the house. If I had decided all I wanted were top tier houses, my final choices would have been different and I likely would be a ChiO, which is a great house, just not for me. But I wouldn't have known that if I made my choices based on reputation, not reality. It's all about finding the right fit. So give yourself, and all of the houses, a better chance. As for being Greek, there's really nothing like it. It is a system that provides friendship, support and helps bring out the best in me. I love it.

Yes this may be true, but gorgeous nice funny thin hot athletic great personality artistic girls are cut right away for average grades or being from the wrong state or not having connections in a house. The process is mysterious and not easy to predict.
