Congrats on being admitted to UCF! Go Knights!

UCF recruitment is moderately competitive. You will not be prejudiced for being an out-of-state resident. If anything, it helps make you more memorable because most UCF students are from Florida.

I had sisters and Greek friends at UCF who weren't Floridians who had great recruitments. In addition, the sorority was truly a home away from home for these members because they weren't able to travel home to their families as frequently as the in-staters.

I'm sending you a PM regarding your question about recs.

-Are there specific orientations that I would have to attend if i was rushing?
Yes. There is a kickoff event the day before recruitment. You will be informed about this when you register for recruitment with UCF Panhellenic.

-Overall, are UCF, UF & FSU steryotypical when it comes to being from out of state and stuff?
UCF is not.

-Do you suggest getting recs to every house? If this is not possible, will i be at a big dissadvantage or do most girls not have them?
More and more girls have them.

-Is rush really as intense as they say it is?
It's very hectic and can be emotional. You're caught up in the moment, and it's sometimes challenging to put in perspective that you've had maybe 20 minutes worth of conversations with a sorority, yet you're feeling crushed if they cut you.

Good luck! It's a fun, albeit a bit stressful, but well worth it! I highly recommend exploring Greek Life if you're attending UCF!

Go Knights!!!
