why didn't it work out?
by: ?I thought it would be really cool and rewarding to try Greek life and join a sorority, so I rushed both this past fall and the one before and both times I was released by all of the houses after round 3. I'm pretty, have cute outfits, have a killer list of accomplishments and fun stories, so I just don't understand. How does the whole process even work and how common is my situation?

it's possible to "slip through the cracks" and get dropped by houses that think you're a great person, but would fit better somewhere else (actually fit there, not as an excuse.) Imagine going to a preppy house and they later dropped you because they think you're too trendy, and vice versa, even though you're "on par" with both of them as far as looks and conversation. it sucks when there's 1768 girls going through rush. it really does.

If you hate Greek life and sororities so much, why are you here? Why do you care?
To the OP, there's no way of knowing. GPA could be a reason; it's the main reason someone would get released everywhere. Could also be the questions you asked. When I rushed, I thought I was supposed to ask about their events with fraternities and about their symbols. Didn't realize until I was in a chapter that asking about boys is a big no-no and asking about symbols seems like I'm fishing for info on ritual. I was lucky and found a great house but there may be something like that you never thought of. Each house has to sift through hundreds of people and so even little stuff like that can sometimes make the difference.
