if asked whether you will be rushing tell them the truth. something like"yes, i am planning on rushing. i am looking forward to it."

and to carry ksuviolets06 thoughts a little further, no one(not even the president of a sorority chapter) can guarantee a girl will get a bid. if some of your friends in the 2 sororities you have your eyes on have told you that you are in for sure, just tell them how thrilled you are, and then know that this is not true. the sorority members probably know that every one seems to like you and it appears that you would be a good fit for their chapter, but when it comes around to membership selection time, crazy things happen all the time.

girls have dropped out of rush because a sorority member told them that while they could not offer them a bid during formal recruitment(too many legacies, need more beauty queens, etc) if the pnm would drop out and go thru cob, they could give them a bid then. guess what happens? pnm drops out, waiting to be invited to sorority's cob parties and receiving bid;meanwhile sorority has great rush, pledges quota and is over total, so hold no cob parties. pnm is out in the cold. so, short story long, until you have the bid in your hand, don't trust a bid promise!
