When I was in school, we had release figures, because the Greek Advisor who kept stats. After she left, the next Greek Advisor totally abandoned this, and the system shows it. The larger sororities now tend to get larger, while the smaller remain about the same....

Tara you might be able to clear this up for me...

How does UF decide how many girls they can invite back after rounds 1,2, and 3. Do they really drop 50% of the girls at each round?

Well, no. I'm trying to remember how all this worked. From what I understand each chapter has release figures, some chapters release many more than others. I believe our figures come mainly from nationals. Therefore, some chapters can keep many girls, only releasing a few, but definitely not being interested in them. They won't be released until later rounds. I know it sounds cruel, but that's how UF rush works for some chapters. The whole time everyone says, ABC kept practically everyone, which looks sketchy/appealing to Rushees, when in all actuality they are truly only interested in 100 women the whole time. Sneaky huh?

I wouldn't think a chapter would release 50% of the girls after each round because they ahve to take into account that some girls will have decided they want to decline an invitation extended by their chapter. So, you could drop 50% of the girls, then only 30% return for the next round, and you've screwed yourself.

UF56, it's really complicated and there's no straight up answer to your question because it varies from chapter to chapter and I only genuinely know about how mine works. But for the most part everyone gets a substantial amount of invites for the number of parties for that round.

I hope that helped, if not, let us know. Best of luck everyone...it's creeping up on you!!!

THanks for the info....I guess UF Rush is going to smaller this year because as of right now there is only 690 girls signed up for recruitment and it starts in two weeks.
