*hoping for the best for raiderchic*

Have we heard anything yet?? It is definitely Monday!!

I'll find out later tonight I think... this waiting is def. hard.

Oooh! I have my fingers crossed for ya!!!

(Very cool that you wore your pjs to the event :))

The suspense is killing me!!!! lol....:D

same here! I'm hoping for the best for you raiderchic!

It's 10:30 and I still haven't heard anything , I'm nervous.... maybe they didn't like me.... I'm not sure what to think.... I'm guessing it's not good... , unless they didn't decide today .... :confused:

did they say you would be contacted regardless of what their decision was?

I personally would perhaps call the person in charge of recruitment and ask if they are holding any more events in the near future, and maybe she will shed some light on the situation? If anyone feels this might be an inappropriate action to take, please correct me :)

I'd give it at least through Tuesday before following up. I'm not very patient, and I've messed up a few times by not just giving someone another 24 hours because I couldn't stand the wait!

Well Ladies, I talked to my friend today, and she told me that the girls thought I was really cute and sweet, however I need to work on my gpa and bring it up, but she said I could go to some more events they are having... and try cob again in jan. if I'm interested , I let her know I really am interested and I was just wondering if they didn't like me or what it was... , I wish I had been called regardless... but at least now I know what I need to do, so I'm going to keep at my grades and hopefully next semester things will work out for me... I'll keep y'all posted.

You can work on grades - "cute and sweet" don't come as easily! ;) Just think of the incentive you have now!! :cool:

Do they use your overall GPA or the one for the previous semester? Was it the minimum? or less? I don't want to run into the same prob.!!

i agree w/ honeychile! please don't give up hope on finding your home!

many GLOs would love to give bids to women, but end up not being able to because of grades. it isn't meant to be hurtful, but instead to help you. school comes first because without university, sororities wouldn't exist in the first place!

i sincerely hope you have an awesome rest-of-the-semester and that you will pursue COR next semester :)

Thanks Ladies :) I'm keeping at my gpa..., I wish it was my gpa from last semester I made a 3.0 , but unfortunatley the previous couple of semesters weren't super great so my gpa is blah... , it's your cumulative gpa... , which is why it's slowly going up, but I'm working hard.... hopefully it will be up enough for me to Cor successfully next semester. my spirits are still high, eventhough last night I was going bonkers not knowing what was up... I'm good now that I know what's up.

raiderchic482: I am proud of you! Keep working on your grades and show them how dedicated you are. You have a wonderful attitude.

lil_princess05: Every sorority has different requirements, but keep those grades up as they are important to all chapters. :)

ditto....
work hard and get the grades up and see what develops.
sounds like you made a good impression.

It sounds like they really liked you, most sororities are not allowed by there advisors or nationals to take below a certain gps, and is not in anyway a reflexion of how the group liked you as a person.. Dont get discouraged...Did these cob events make you want to be part of that group ?? Now that they know you it should be easier next time !!

Raiderchic,

Girl, I'm so proud of you. Just work on those grades and everything will be okay. :) They liked you...plus you'll still have the rest of this semester to hang out with them.

Good luck!

:D :D :D

raiderchic482, you're fine -- if your GPA from last semester was a 3.0, you've got your stuff together and I know you'll do fine this semester, too.

Don't worry about it, it's all a matter of time. :D

Hey everyone it's been ahwhile since I last wrote, I've been working at my grades, and finals start next week, yuck! I hope I do well enough so that my grades aren't going to hurt me in spring rush, I found out today from an e-mail that spring rush is going to be the first week in february, and that an info. session is the last week in jan. and I'll find out then which sororites are having informal rush. I just thought I would update y'all. : )

go, raider chic!!!
 

here's to wishing that you study hard and score 100 on all tests, so that you the get to join the sorority of your choice in feb.!! good luck.

go girl...
until christmas...the books are your friend, your only friend.
it will pay off in the end.

best of luck raiderchic!

Good luck Raiderchic! I'm glad to hear that your grades improved last semester and wish the best of luck to you this semester! Keep up the hard work and it will pay off! :D

Applause!
 

Way to go raiderchic482! Good luck with finals and with recruitment in the spring. I am proud of you for hanging in there and working hard.

does anyone know if raiderchic482 is planning to COB this spring? i'd love to know which house(s) she had visited in the fall and if she plans on trying again in january.

Spring Rush is upon us.
 

Hi Everyone & Zu Zu,
I'm planning on Rushing this spring still, I'm not sure which houses are having informal rush, I find out in a couple of weeks at the info. meeting. I'll keep Y'all posted. This fall I only knew of my roomates sorority still having cob events, I would prefer to not name which they are.

yay! best of luck!

i hope it all works out for you! some of my best girls at tech were my spring pledges (coupled with academic holdovers, but that's another story!) good luck!

ZuZu,
Thanks for your support & What's an academic holdover?

When a pledge does not achieve the necessary GPA in her first semester to be initiated.

oh okay thanks for the info. girl33.
