Sometimes there are conflicts during recruitment with other school related activities - marching band is a very common one. Please contact the Greek Life office at UA and talk with them about it. I'm sure they have dealt with this before.

Okay! I'll do a rush story as soon as rush starts:)

Sounds good, read through some of other stories here and consider doing a delayed story to relieve stress on yourself as well as avoid making it obvious what your thoughts are on certain chapters during recruitment.

Haha I've read through them! And that's a good idea, I'll do it right afterwards. And I'll for sure contact the Greek Office, thanks for your help:)

It doesn't sound like that big of a deal, and I guess my dad just is big on responsibility and obligation. I am going to try to talk to him again and see what I can do, but your generalization about my dad isn't correct. He doesn't usually do this, only when I have an obligation to do something. So he understands that when I'm in a sorority that is a commitment I have made and he is willing to support that financially 100%. It does concern me about how competitive you have made recruitment out to be at UofA (and I'm sure you're right) so I am going to try to figure things out and not miss anything. Because I KNOW greek life is for me, I've thought about it for a long time and know it's at least worth trying. (Especially because I already registered, why would I waste the money and potentially miss out on an amazing opportunity to become a part of a new family???)

See if you can get one of your friends or someone else to help him out (and they can earn a little extra $$). Tell him that if you have to miss a party or do the abbreviated rush, you may be seriously jeopardizing your chances at the group that is right for you (and therefore throwing your rush fee down the toilet).

check with your Recruitment Counselor concerning UA's policy on missing parties.

When do we find out who our Recruitment Counselor is? At the PNM meeting?

That's pretty standard. Even if you don't get assigned one then, that's a good time to find one and ask questions.

Alrighty then. I hope that the OP and whoever else is lurking but going through recruitment at the University of Arizona took the time to read my post, as well as the other posts which contained great information.

And to Drolefille - you might be the Ur-Greek, but I went to school when God was a baby. So what does that make me? *ducks and runs for the bleachers, spilling popcorn and coke along the way*

AZTheta, I read your post and appreciate your advice! Thanks for taking the time to help me out, as I don't know too much about recruitment yet!

Hey girls I'm rushing at UA this fall too! Feel free to message me :)
