I've been scanning the threads for anything on UTEP greek life, but there doesn't seem to be a lot of chatter. I plan on entering in as a freshman in the Spring 2010 semester, and I'm really interested in joining a sorority but the process seems a little mind boggling as an outsider.

I know so many people have asked similar questions, but hopefully this is okay since it's university specific. I have no greek contacts or relations, but since UTEP is a smaller college (I saw the quota last year was 14 women for the sororities, but I'm not 100% certain how many sororities there are) is it still a competitive school for rushing? I don't understand the recruitment process very well, but if a sorority reaches quota in the Fall, does that mean they won't take any new members in the Spring? Or will the quota process start over, or does a quota even matter during informal?

Sorry, the system is very confusing and I'm not sure who to talk to about the details.
