Rec Letters
Hey yall! I was just wondering if there is a way to find rec letters from different sorority alumni. Do you know how to find some?
|
Yes.
|
Please, use the search function. Thank you.
|
IL: that was the first thing I typed, so JINX!
|
where?
|
They're with the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
Seriously, take a few minutes to read the threads on here. If you're fishing for some random strangers on the internet to say "yes, I will write a rec for you!", you'd better rethink your strategy. Not going to happen. |
Bless your heart.
Time to learn how to say "please" and "thank you." Read first. Ask questions later if you can't find your answer. |
I wasnt looking for random people to write me letters.. i was just wondering if there was a website or something i could find. If you could help me out, that would be greatly appreciated! thanks guys!!
|
How did people ever get rec letters to join sororities before the internet? :rolleyes:
|
Not looking for "random people" but thinks there will be a web site with non-random people? Maybe one called "Friends of Mackenzie who can do recs but we won't tell her to her face?" What? Check out the recruitment board. Do a search for recommendations. You'll find tons of ideas there.
|
No need to be rude people. I was just trying to find some, give me a break.
|
If you were trying to find some, you would have done a search and read some for yourself before posting. Really, you are trying to find someone to give you the answer so you don't have to do the work or searching yourself. We're not being rude, just trying to help you realize you have to help yourself first.

You're asking for a favor from us, and didn't even say "please" or "thank you" (I sure hope that you use those words when actually asking someone to write you a rec) or bother to take 30 seconds to do a search for information on what you're requesting. You're not going to be spoonfed everything. Time to be a grown up and do some work on your own.
There are literally 1,000 threads asking this same question. If you would've taken a mere seconds to glance through the threads, you would've seen this. http://www.juicyjuice.com/nirf/cm2/u.../spoonfed1.jpg |
yall are honestly ridiculous. its called being polite and helping others out. obviously yall dont know what that means.all i was trying to do was find some help because i dont know many sorority alumni and was trying to find some names. i appreciated your bitchyness though. greatly appreciated! :)

Waiting for the post that we've made her not want to join a sorority after this thread... |
You are not a snowflake. Good luck getting those recs though!
|
Laughing at poster saying "It's called being polite."
Should heed her own advice. |
Mackenzie, dear. Are you familiar with the term "networking?" If not, look it up. If so, do it....with those women you already know who are alumnae (not alumni) and other other women YOU KNOW but may not know that they are Greek.
If you had been up front in the beginning by saying, I've found some women to do recs for me but still need others. What is the best way to go about that and TIA, then you would have ellicited a different tone of response. |
Hopefully by now she's read the most recent "I don't know how to get recs, can someone please help me?" thread.
|
alright gals, how about we start over?
Hey yall, I've found some women to do recs for me but still need others. Would yall mind helping me find some others please? That would be awesome! thank you so much! :) |
Have you tried looking for the answer yourself yet? It's really easy to find.
|
Yes i have. I have no idea where to find them. I've done tons of online searches, emailed my school Greek Department about it, but still havent found anything. It's much tougher than i thought. Please help
|
Have you looked at other threads on this website? Specifically in the forum called "Sorority Recruitment"?
|
Ive tried, but I cant find anything. I'm new to this website and havent fully figured out how to work it yet haha. I apologize
|
What have the women who have already agreed to give you recs said? You have asked them if they know women in the other groups..right?????? And don't say no...that's the wrong answer here. After you've asked them ALL for ALL the other ones, THEN come back here - on the recruitment thread.

Yes i did just look through those. all i can find if stuff about rush like what to say and what not to say, and what type of schools need rec letters. but okay, yall have been absolutely ZERO help. hopefully yall feel good about yourself now for not helping a girl try to get rec letters to go through rush. God bless yall!

You're such a sucker, AnotherKD. ;)
|

Sending you a PM in a few... :) |
Thank you so so much AnotherKD! No she's definitely not a sucker. She is very helpful, unlike you IrishLake. AnotherKD, do you think it's important to have letters for every sorority if im going to a SEC school?
|
This is the first thread that shows up at the top under sorority recruitment. Last one I'm doing for you. But yes, no SEC school will look at you if you do not have a rec letter. It's not just helpful- it's required.

Ok thanks so much! You have been very helpful!!
|
(AKD made me look bad.... bitch! lol)

Mackenzie,
When you entered the site using greekchat.com, did you happen to click on the oval at the top of the page with the Greekchat logo? If not, click that and the conversations will be broken down by categories. Click on Sorority Recruitment and you will then find a zillion topics answering all the questions you need regarding recommendations. Do not read only those for your school, but all the schools and there is a ton of good advise as to how to go about getting recommendations. After you read all of those and begin working on securing your recommendations, come back and we will then answer your questions that may arise during the process. I am one of those people who went through rush long before the advent of the internet, I had no Greek family members, I knew no one who was Greek and yet I managed to go through rush, obtain a bid back in the days when I used to ride my pet dinosaur to class instead of using a bike and go on to become a very active alumna. Good luck. |
@IL: Not hard to do! (totally joking, of course) ;)
