How will the four chapters I have a connection at treat me then? I am not a legacy to all but the one my mother was in she transferred schools after two. My mom's sister was also in a sorority there but did not become alumnae, she was very known as she married a dean but I am still worried about her quitting and how it might affect me. I also have two cousins who are in different sororities. The last my cousins fiance just graduated and was president of her sorority. I don't know how to approach each sorority because I am afraid they will cut me if they learn I have a connection to another. I know having a cousin in one doesn't make me a legacy but they are currently involved in it and the fear is how do I pick between the different aspects of my family. They fit their sororities to a tee but I second guess myself alot.

We can't predict whether a chapter will cut you because you're a legacy to another.

Just get your recs, prepare well, and present yourself well at every chapter you visit.

As far as chooing between your family members and such, just try to keep an open mind. Family should recognize that you have to make decisions based on your own experiences during recruitment (not on how they feel).
