How cooked am I if I re rush next year

by: nextyearunc   

Okay so long story short, I decided to rush for the first time as a sophomore but withdrew due to a variety of complications with finance issue. Should I even bother to rush again next year as someone who wants to be involved in greek life? (my parents were in greek life if that's any helpful additional info)

Think you’ve missed your chance sadly.

I'm sorry but no sorority is going to bid a junior during formal recruitment. Didn't you discuss this with your Pi Chi?
Your best chance to join, IF your financial situation changes, is an open bid during COB to one of the sororities still below Total. You would need to register with panhellenic for a COB and would really only have a chance at chapters where you have friends. So connect with members in SSS, SK, KKG, AXD, KAT, GPB because those are the ones that usually COB. They do start fall COB right after bid day but you could try for a spring bid when they have vacancies from December graduations.

Your parents having been in Greek life will not help you out.

I did talk with my pi chi and she said that I can try again but honestly there's more to community in Auburn than Greek life, so I'll just join clubs and be involved. But I may try again just to see if it goes anywhere and if it doesn't then oh well its not the end of the world lol.

Club involvement and leadership could help you meet members also. Depends who's in what. Good luck.

Will you be a junior in hours by next fall? If still a sophomore, then you could say a sophomore. Many graduate past 8 semesters anyway. Maybe look into COB for now and see what options exist and then decide about next year.

I think so? But my major is 5 years so I can technically still be a sophomore despite my classification being a junior, which I would explain in my application and ask my LOR's to explain my situation as well. I was thinking about asking the Greek Panhellenic about this but don't really know how to approach it...

I do have a friend who went through as a junior and she did get in a sorority that she wanted. However, her options were very limited and she did not get a lot of invites back each round.
