Go into recruitment with an open mind. You are going to get more heavily cut in the earlier rounds of recruitment because many sororities at UF place priority on recruiting freshman women. As posted earlier, it isn't impossible for an upperclassman to receive a bid to her dream sorority; it just means that you have to keep your options open.

As long as you go in prepared with the notion that you're going to have less invites than many of the freshmen you are rushing with, and keep a postitive attitude and again-- an open mind to the possibilities of any and all of the UF chapters-- you will be fine!

You never know unless you try, so register for fall formal recruitment and give it a go. Take the time pre-recruitment to keep your grades high, get involved in a meaningful activity or community service and keep a positive profile around campus, especially when you are out on the town or at a party. Also, you will need to get started now on getting alumnae recommendations. Contact the Alumnae Panhellenic in your hometown for details on recommendations or talk to sorority alumnae that you know.
