Help with Rec contacts??
 

Hi!

Thank you! And I know there is not a list, I was just wondering if anyone knew anyone in my area? A lot of people in Utah have a negative opinion on Greek Life and so I don't know anyone who is in a sorority nor have any family contacts that do either! :) I appreciate the suggestions though, I will wait a few more weeks to see if the alumni board replies.

People to check with: teachers, high school counselors, neighbors, friends of your parents, people who work with your parents, church friends, etc. Network, network, network. Always ask if they know anyone else who is a member of an NPC group....most do.

I'd suggest working on all of the necessary items for the information packet you are going to send to someone gracious enough to fill out a recommendation for you.

Have you requested the latest transcript from your school? Have you prepared your resume? What pictures are you sending? Have you written introductory letters? Do you have all the envelopes and postage?

See if you can find some recruitment manuals online from some of the UPC's in larger cities in Oklahoma. Mirror the information packets they suggest to the girls in their district. Level the playing field as much as you can, even if you just barely squeak by with one rec for each sorority.

My daughter will be going through recruitment this year as well and we've put quite a bit of time in on getting all of this done.

If you work on this you'll be ready to impress the girls at OU. Good luck!

you will need recs. at OU, so good for you for starting to take care of that.
