P.S. If the OP is at one of the schools I am thinking she is at, the fee is CONSIDERABLY lower than even the lowest fee (i.e. the registering earliest fee) at Bama.

Yes, really.

The registration cost increases as the rush dates approach, however.

Which SEC and Big 10 schools have a drop-dead cutoff date well before rush begins?

I always laugh in awe when I hear how much people pay to rush. When I was an undergrad, it was $5 to rush. :)

Once again, I love how only part of a question got answered and the truly pertinent part was ignored. :rolleyes:

I guess that depends on how you define "truly pertinent."

Other parts of your question:

Recommendations are strongly suggested, not required. The UofA Panhellenic site includes a lengthy page devoted to Letters of Recommendation: http://www.uapanhellenic.com/index.p...d=15&Itemid=32

Registering the day of convocation? Probably not.

This is double top-secret PNM registration information. We can’t tell you the reason we have late registration, but we are delighted that you asked, so we can tell you that we can’t tell you.

Good news! Then it won’t be necessary to skip lattes. ;)

Nope, you're not the only one. I'm clueless, and a little thrown at seeing an Opie in anything but The Andy Griffith Show.

Congratulations, bml619!

Thank You everyone for the congratulations!!! I think this is where I fit in and am so excited to go through everything with my new sisters!!!

Congrats on a Phi Mu ending! Welcome to our Bond!
