I'm doing delayed rush this coming spring!!

FuturePNMMom 07-13-2011 06:54 PM

My daughter is rushing at an SEC school this fall! She is so excited and a little nervous!

missnatural 07-17-2011 05:56 PM

Rushing at a very competitive Southern school. <3 Wishing for luck and lots of fun!

I have added the University of Alabama to my Rec Crew. The girl got her info to me the day before recs had to be postmarked, but we made it! I was also contacted a few days ago by another UGA-bound girl and am doing her rec this week. So -- my crew is:

4 at UGA
1 at Ole Miss
1 at Alabama
1 at Georgia State College and University. Their recruitment is coming up quickly; it begins August 6th.

All have promised to let me know the outcome of their adventure. I also know quite a few young men who will be taking part in fraternity recruitment as freshmen. Some have been attending summer parties and two have already received bids from fraternities at UGA -- one to Sig Ep and one to Sigma Nu. It's so exciting to see where everyone finds their home!

I am rushing this fall! In a few short weeks, I will be going through one the best experiences of my life. Also, just wanted to let you all know how helpful GC is! I have read through countless threads and reading through other girls recruitment stories have eased my nerves...a little. :)

Gamomof2 07-26-2011 05:36 PM

Our daughter is going through recruitment this year at an SEC school also.

OleMissGlitter 07-27-2011 11:35 AM

I have a big rec crew this year! So far:
1 at Bama
1 at Auburn
too many to remember at Ole Miss!

greekdee 07-28-2011 10:00 PM

I was not on GC last fall and am wondering -- will there be a thread to post the results of our rec crews? I don't think I will be doing any actual recruitment stories on any of mine, but should find out where each one accepts a bid to. Or -- can we just update in this thread? Thanks

Jill1228 07-28-2011 10:39 PM

Just update this thread. I already have your rec posse listed

wareagle93 07-28-2011 10:47 PM

I would have, but I was very blessed and fortunate to receive a bid from a fraternity (which I pledged) over the summer at AU. Best of luck to all you ladies and gents set to rush this fall!

Btw, any of you rushing at Auburn this fall? I'm going to be a freshman there :)

greekdee 07-28-2011 11:19 PM

Thank you Jill1228, I will do that!

TAJ<3 07-29-2011 05:59 AM

I'm going to be on "the other side" of rush for the first time!!!

LSuz19 07-31-2011 04:37 AM

I am rushing! I'm super duper nervous, but really excited!! :)

Don't be nervous, just be yourself and you'll definitely find the best group for you! For someone that went through Summer Rush, I was totally feeling what you were-nervous but excited. Good luck!

wildcass 07-31-2011 04:01 PM

I'm rushing at UK. (: Less than 13 days to go--I'm so excited!

rachel0280 07-31-2011 06:00 PM

I'm rushing! 2 weeks! I'm really excited! :)

BadCat25 08-01-2011 10:48 AM

I hit the malls yesterday with a girl from my church who is going through recruitment at UGA, trying to find the perfect pref party dress and at last we found it. I have been helping her get ready for rush, helping her with some recs she was having trouble with and her conversation skills. She is such a sweet girl I will just vomit if things don't work out for her. Will let you know how things turn out.

outwest 08-01-2011 02:43 PM

I'm rushing this fall! :)

I couldn't be more nervous/excited!

lsol 08-01-2011 02:49 PM

I'm rushing in two weeks. Hopefully everything goes well for me, the only downer is that I'm a junior but I'm hoping for the best.

I have two cousins that are already involved in Greek Life at UGA, one is set to be a Junior, the other a Sophomore-both are in the same fraternity.

I also have a cousin (female) that is going to be a Freshman there in the fall, and she too is going through recruitment at UGA.

I've been down to UGA during the school year on visits, and one thing I can tell you is that the people involved in the Greek Life System at UGA, both males and females are some of the most down-to-earth, genuine people you will come across. I am going to AU and pledged to a fraternity over the summer, but it was very hard to say no to UGA. It seems as if there is a place for everybody. My cousin is very nervous, much like the girl you are helping. I have no doubt that it will turn out well for the girl you are helping; all of the girls that I had the opportunity to meet (from quite a few different sororities, mind you) were outstanding people.

Best of luck, and keep us posted!

AuburnMom85 08-03-2011 11:09 PM

My daughter will be starting recruitment next week!

Pinky657 08-04-2011 10:10 PM

I will be going through recruitment this coming school year (2011-2012).
I have a quick question though. My dad is a pro athlete. I don't want to flaunt it and appear obnoxious but I have interesting stories because of it and I think it makes me stand out a bit. Should I or should I not bring up my father during recruitment?

If you had recs submitted, they probably know about you and your family

Football Fan 08-04-2011 11:48 PM

I have one so far who will be a freshman at the Univ. of Georgia.

westcoastsunset 08-05-2011 12:28 AM

I'm doing recruitment this fall at Chapman! Excited, but I have yet to put together a rec crew :O

MSKKG 08-05-2011 12:43 AM

I know two young ladies going through recruitment at Clemson (one lives in my neighborhood--we used to carpool--and the other is the daughter of one of my husband's co-workers). I sent a letter for each of them since I never got anything to write an actual rec for them. I also wrote a rec for a young lady going through at Bama.

CubbieBlue 08-05-2011 02:08 AM

I wrote my first rec this year for a girl going through at Illinois! So excited for her!

greekdee 08-05-2011 09:21 PM

The first girl in my Rec Crew starts recruitment tomorrow night! She was also the first rec I did this summer. Can't believe it's here and I will soon have some news to report!

ThetaPrincess24 08-06-2011 04:43 PM

So far I will be writing ten references for ladies going through at Eastern Kentucky University (EKU).

Gatorgirl729 08-10-2011 04:20 PM

Thank you! I am planning on posting my recruitment story during (or after, lets be honest, I might just be way to tired at the end of the day :p) recruitment, and I will definitely let everyone know how it goes!

greekdee 08-11-2011 01:08 PM

Update! Update! Results are in for the first girl on my Rec Crew: Delta Zeta at Georgia College and State University!

Jill1228 08-11-2011 03:39 PM

Updated with our first result! WOO HOO

ASUADPi 08-11-2011 07:11 PM

I just found out that a former cheerleader of mine is rushing at U of Arizona. I'm so excited for her.

Daughter's friend from high school.
Daughter's roommate.

honeychile 08-13-2011 11:47 PM

Three recs so far from me, but I think at least one of them also has one from another Greek Chatter.

AUBoosMom 08-14-2011 03:37 PM

From Auburn:

1 ALPHA DELTA PI

1 DELTA ZETA

1 DELTA DELTA DELTA
