Girls at Vanderbilt are paying a Recruitment Registration Fee of some amount without knowing if they'll get a bid. They think it it's worth it. People pay for services that aren't assured all the time.

So what about paying a tutor to help with a class? The tutor does not guarentee you will get an A on an exam, but they will help you to be better prepared going into that exam. I mean you can study for the LSAT, GRE, GMAT, physics, math, psych exam on your own or using free materials or free study session, but sometimes paying that extra money for a prep course or tutor is worth it. Neither option will guarentee anyting, but for some people, the confidence gained by feeling better prepared is worth the money. Maybe it gives the test taker more confidence so they do better.
Same thing for going into rush. Maybe the women who go to the paid advisor will feel more confident and more open and excel at rush. Maybe they won't. Either way, it doesn't hurt anyone and if it makes the girl more confident, then hey..it's her money!
