I have a question that may seem a little strange. I just completed PSR at my school and ended up receiving a bid to my top choice house after pref. night. Sounds wonderful, right? Except I realized after I had made a big mistake and unfortunately, my heart lies in my second choice house after pref. I have tried to wrap my head around this, and actively participate in my current house, however am just not happy.
My question is: From experience, do you think I should just wait it out until initiation and see if I warm up to the house? Or do you think I should reject my bid now and wait until next year (unfortunately) to go through recruitment again and cross my fingers that the house I rejected this year will want me next year. Or is that too risky?
Thank you soo much for any advice you can give me... I've really been struggling with this!  |
I'd stick it out at least till Initiation. You're going to have to wait a year anyway if you depledge, and you already know that there's a possibility your second choice won't give you a bid next year. Heck, there's a possibility that you won't get ANY bid next year.
A lot can change between now and Initiation. It's up to you to give your chapter a chance.
