Cut from UT Austin recruitment on preference night. Made it this far. What do I do?
 

I'd like to start this by saying:

I worked as hard as I could to be the best possible PNM. The only thing that was missing was that I wasn't a legacy, which I couldn't help.

Please don't tell me things like - oh, there's spirit groups - because I've heard that enough. I just don't know what to do. I worked so hard and went through absolute hell this week, but was cut right before Bid Day.

I feel visibly sick. What are the chances of me getting a snap bid? I heard about it from my roommate, who's a sophomore (I am a freshman). Does that even happen?

There are a lot of girls this year withdrawing because they didn't get their first choice, and hopefully a lot will suicide. (That sounds so mean. I just...ugh. It's okay, I'll be fine.)

Sorry for you...but don't let this undermine the fact that you made it into an amazing university that is so difficult to get in. I wish you much success and don't be down on yourself, it's a tough process. Best of luck:o

QFP removed, per OP's request.

Thank you. I'm trying to be positive about it, because there's nothing else I can really do.

But I think I'll be fine.

Good one.

OP... I don't know what you mean "don't know what to do."

Surely there's more to do on campus besides being in a sorority and/or joining a spirit group. Try getting involved with different clubs or groups.

We don't know the chances of getting a snap bid... We also don't know why you were cut.

Good one.

At least I didn't describe what I looked like. It's hard to miss me in a crowd.

It's okay, I know. I'm just really looking for sympathy and a way to talk someone. I would really appreciate the QFP being removed.

It wasn't my qfp, doll.

I get it that it's hard, and you're gonna be a negative nelly for a while, but you might find better support by confiding and/or commiserating with someone in person rather than online. Perhaps someone to join some other groups with. :)

Oh, and not making rash posts online where you can be found out.

I won't be a negative Nelly. I can still possibly do things like continue with cheerleading. I'll jus tneed a few hours to get over it.

It doesn't matter. I'm withdrawing myself from it as we speak.

I know I've been dropped, but I don't want to hold on to the possibility of a snap bid.


There. officially gone. oh well, I gave it my best.

:)

I guess it really was for the better. Now I'll just join something else and forget all about sororities.

I'm sorry this happened to you. Hopefully some of the advice in this advice may help the hurt you're feeling:

Troll. No sympathies.

If you had done your homework on GC, you will notice time after time it is mentioned that at UT, being a legacy is no guarantee.
