How popular each house will be

by: Real   

Saw someone else do this so here’s my take coming from an active who knows a lot of girls rushing…

Piphi and dg will be most popular. EVERYONE I’ve talked to wants dg (but also all my friends that are rushing are more of that vibe over the top tier/looks house/sec vibe so I could have a skewed view point). Piphi is seeming a lot more popular than aphi.
Aphi will still be popular but mostly with girls who are caught up in rank and are the party vibe. Girls will like them if they have been dirty rushed by them because they think it’s a free ticket to a top house. Imma reiterate tho RANK DOES NOT MATTER… so im begging girls to not go for a house just because they want higher rank.
From the girls I’ve talked to, chi o and theta are pretty equal (chi o over theta for the most part but girls I’ve talked to say theyd be super happy with either) and both would be preferred over Axo and kappa. Girls see these houses as more genuine and even if there hasn’t actually been any scandal with Axo, the rumors that have gone around of all their exec dropping last year, poor retention, questionable social media practices, etc have turned girls away. I’m not saying these are true whatsoever but girls have heard these rumors and don’t wanna risk it.
Kappa will still get aphi rejects but the girls who are not interested in aphi (girls that want dg/ more genuine experience) will not like kappa. Kappas mean girl rep is hurting them this year more than it has in the past.
Gphi will probably have the dg/chio/theta rejects. They aren’t bottom tier but they aren’t anybody’s first choice. They do well during rush but their retention seems to be one of the worst of any house (not sure why if anyone has any insight pls spill).
Tri delt will probably get their best pc and it will be sweet girls who don’t care about rank. Girls that don’t go Gphi will go ddd.

there’s no way that chi o and theta are equal. ask any guy (or girl) at cu.

And this isn’t saying that they are. This is a rank of how popular each house will be. Popularity in a recruitment cycle doesn’t have to correlate with their actual rank

This says that chi o and theta will be equally popular not equally ranked smh

either way i don’t think theta will be "equally popular" to chi o during rush. pretty sure pnm’s will choose chi o over theta especially if they have any interest in mixing with frats.

personally i think that chi o is always above theta, but theta doesn’t get enough credit for how much girls like them during rush. it seems like pnms love their energy and how kind a lot of the girls recruiting them are.

I mean she did say all the girls she talked to weren’t really chasing based off social standing, so I think she meant sisterhood wise. Everyone knows chi o is above theta but I would say they are still pretty similar in terms of personality and values!

is there a way to see retention rates?

By: srat

dg has the highest retention rate on the hill, the sisterhood is pretty tight they actually all like eachother and have the same vibe

dg does not have the highest retention rate, im pretty sure it's pi phi. lotsss of dgs drop in the spring of freshman year, forcing 100+ girls to practice for a dance competition for 8 hours a day unfortunately pushes girls to drop.

Dgs are definitely not all the same vibe. I know a girl from hs that’s in dg and she’s a totally different vibe from my friends in dg. Go to a dg event and you’ll see that there’s all types of girls. With pcs as large as they are all houses are going to have a variety of “vibes”. (In response to “buff”)

why did so many dg’s drop? was it because of the time commitment?

chi o took a small spring pc and i don’t think dg or pi phi even did cob

Spring class sizes have very little to do with overall retention. Some houses are required by nationals to do it more formally and some houses keep it on the DL. Either way retention is looking at who has the most girls make it all the way to senior year and those would be PiPhi, DG, Theta, and Chi O. Retention also depends on the pc so just because one class has cob doesn’t mean a different pc within the house could have the best retention of any house for that year.

this is true. if a house is at total (or close to total) they prob wouldn’t cob, but if they had a lot of girls from their fall pc drop and have open spots they would most likely cob.

dg did not have a ton of freshman drop in the spring, you clearly aren’t a dg. Also, just because the dg house is very involved in songfest doesn’t mean girls drop because of it, lol

im not a dg, but i can't tell you how many dgs ive met out that tell me how much they wish they were in a different house. and i know of at least four girls that dropped dg in the spring, and as someone that probably only knows 15 dgs total that's a crazy high number.

can i ask-why did they drop or why do they wish they didn’t go dg?

Hi! The stuff about axo is not true lol I live with 2 former exec members and can confidently say that’s not the case. The majority of my friend group used to be on exec and are still actively involved in the sorority. Don’t believe everything you see here. I’m a senior and have a big friend group of AXO’s who all also didn’t drop and have loved their experience in alpha chi. No shade to any other sororities I just do not think this is an accurate representation of axo

all of axo’s last exec board is still active? as well as the current exec board, were you thinking of the aphi exec scandal? cause they were the ones that had their whole exec board drop

By: ummmm

Pnms should ask about these dumb kinds of rumors during rush bc 9 times out of 10 is just made up bs from other houses

I mean aphi had that scandal with their old president 2 years ago but their new president slays. A bunch of axo exec dropped 2 years ago and two exec members from this board dropped (philanthropy and dei). Both in axo dropped for personal reasons but it’s also why we didn’t have a philanthropy event in the springs.

i think you might be getting dropped and stepped down from their positions mixed up, yes someone stepped down but i don’t think a sorority should be villainized for an exec member admitting when they’re in over their head and stepping down from their position while still remaining an active member. it happens in every sorority, and it’s okay for people to feel safe enough to admit when they took on a little too much!
