who cut you after iwts

by: question July 22, 2018 2:15:09 AM

i was midwest oos, great gpa and involvement, average presentation. after open house round i got cut by alpha chi, chi o, pi phi, zeta, phi mu, and kappa. was really surprised i got kd and alpha gam back because i had heard they were super southern and i definitely was not really their "type."

just curious what houses surprised you with whether you got them back or not!!

I did too. These were the only two houses I didn’t have in house connections to, but I was still really surprised bc I really considered these houses to be my type (I had a 4.1 gpa and lots of involvement in high school)

Not sure of the reason for the downvote? West Coast?

Curious if you ended up pledging in the end?

Of course I pledged a house! I just wondered why someone gave me a downvote for sharing my cuts after IWT. I had a lot of houses that round (11), I had 7 the next round and 3 for pref ( two OR and one NR). I got my top house.

I was not trying to be snarky just curious what you ended up doing. Sorry if I came across that way!

I had good grades, etc, but was mostly unconnected and didn't get invited back to PM, AXO, KD, AGD, APhi, DG and ADPi, which even my Rho Chi thought left me with a really weird mix and I'm still not sure what to think about it.

the cut i was most surprised by was pi phi. I had a good convo but i think it was the gpa that did it for me (3.4). i was kept by houses that cross rush with them throughout the rest of rush. no hard feelings. just surprised
