It will entirely depend on the campus that you attend. Many chapters on less-conservative campuses wouldn't think twice about your beliefs or your wearing hijab. You might have a tougher time at a competitive school, such as those in the SEC. I would say if you are attending school in the Northeast, it won't make a difference.

If you do wear hijab through recruitment, I would recommend wearing one that is memorable instead of one that is white (if your beliefs allow). I remember the first time that I saw Benazir Bhutto wearing hijab made from a Hermes scarf. I wanted to wear one too. I thought she looked so chic and elegant.
