generale guide to rush

- Recs: Get them if you can. Recs show houses that you're serious and knowledgable about sorority life, 2 per house is recommended.
- Dress code: Formal. Stop acting like you can't find a nice, cute, and modest dress. You're not here to find a boyfriend, you're here to meet highly respected houses. No rompers, no visible undies (bras/bralettes), no off the shoulder dresses, no spaghetti straps.
- Convos: No controversial conversations. The 5 B's are off limits (boys, booze, Bush, bucks, beliefs).
- Grades: 3.0 is the recommended GPA from Panhellenic. But all houses want to see something significantly higher.
- Cuts: Houses drop you, you don't drop them. Be humble, be nice, and be ready. Expect the worst but hope for the best.
- Cuts: Virtually every girl who wants a bid gets one. The amount of girls who get released from rush is minuscule so stop worrying.
- Weather: It's hot. You'll be outside for half of the day. Make sure your makeup can endure it and make sure your outfit isn't suffocating you.
- Stolen Bids: If you know you can't afford sorority life then don't rush. If you're not interested in Greek life then don't rush. When you rush knowing you're not going to pledge, you're taking a bid away from a deserving girl.
- Where to Pledge: All houses provide the same exact social, academic, and leadership opportunities. Pledge a house for the sisterhood.


- Above all Else: All the houses are great. Ranks don't mean anything in real life. Period
