Still, the fact that you acknowledge that you went into rush last year with not the greatest of attitudes is a positive sign. You see things differently now, and maybe the houses will also see you differently too, instead of that naive freshman from last year.

Worrying about something is like praying for something bad to happen. Instead of thinking about how your previous experience might hurt your chances, put forth some effort in making the opposite happen. Ask your friends in the sororities to put you in touch with alums who can write you recs. Even if recs aren't mandatory on your campus, it doesn't hurt to have them. It might just show the sororities that you were willing to do the footwork and show them how much you want to be a part of a sisterhood.

Agreed with everything OTW said.

We can't say/do anything to get you into the head's of the sorority women at your school.

The best thing you can do is read the stickies at the top of the recruitment forum and take it from there.

Best answer. This implies no "fault" on either party's side (which there really isn't, honestly).

Although, if this is a smaller school/rush, be prepared to answer questions about your admittedly poor attitude the last time round. Some of the sorority members may remember you as "that girl who looked like a bum." I would just tell them that you weren't feeling well during rush and leave it at that.
