I go to exactly this sort of school, and I've been told that I don't NEED recs, but the girl I was talking to never said anything about having them being bad, just that if I couldnt find someone to write one it wasnt a big deal.
Also, I'll be going through as an upperclasswoman (2nd year) and have freinds in most of the sororities, so they do already have a good idea of who I am. I have a good lead on a rec for one of the chapters, but the others are proving tricky. Should I just take the one, or should I give up on all of them? |
We got one rec the whole time I was in school and we were just kind of clueless as to what to do with it - we didn't think it was a negative though. The girl ended up pledging elsewhere anyway. Take the one rec that was offered to you, but don't break your back trying to get one for every group or freak out if you can't.
