helllp!
i was just wondering if all chapters require recommendations.....Also, what if you dont know anyone that has been in a sorority? how do you get a recommendation and who do you ask?
Can you play a school sport while being in a sorority? these questions might sound stupid but i'm new at this please help! |
As far as recommendations, it really depends on the school. At some schools, recommendations are a must, while at others, you don't need them at all. Contact your school's Greek Life Office and ask them.
Recs need to be written by alumnae of that particular sorority. Here's a link to a post about how to locate alumnae: http://www.greekchat.com/gcforums/sh...t=53908&page=7 This thread has a ton of good recruitment advice and some more info about getting recommendations: http://www.greekchat.com/gcforums/sh...ad.php?t=54403 In short, you can play a sport and be in a sorority. We had a girl come here awhile back and ask the same thing in this thread: http://www.greekchat.com/gcforums/sh...hlight=athlete Good luck! |
Help is on the way
1. I cannot speak for all sororities. I will simply say that recommendations are always a good idea. Far better to have them and not need them, then to need them and not have them. Many times the determining factor is the campus. Some highly competitive campuses are going to require them, while they may not be important at a less competitive campus. Check with your university panhellenic, and make sure you register with them. Once the individual GLOs know you are going through recruitment they MAY (or may not) see about getting recs from their alumnae.
2. You may know more sorority women than you think. Let everyone - teachers, mothers of friends, friends of your mother's, relatives, work associates, etc. - know you are thinking about going through recruitment. 3. Register with your local alumnae panhellenic. They will give your information to NPC members, who may or may not then arrange to get you recommendations. 4. Use the search option on this board. You'll find lots more detailed information. Good luck. ETA - KSUViolet posted while I was writing and covered everything - links and all.(!) Still, HTH! |
There are groups of sorority alumnae called Alumnae Panhellenics in various cities. These groups help promote sorority life and help girls prepare for recruitment.
Here's a list of Alumnae Panhellenics: http://www.npcwomen.org/alumnae/a_directory.php If there's one in your city, you can contact them and see if they can put you in contact with alumnae of the sororities at your school who may be willing to write recs for you. |
