Please, Please, please stop saying how much you love XXX. It will only hurt you. (I am leaving out the sorority name in case the OP wises up and changes her posts)
ETA, also check around your school, church etc for women who you may not know were in sororities, or who will know people who are in the chapters you're looking for.

Hey thank you for the advice! I feel most at home in XXX (is it better to not mention specific sororities?) as compared to the other houses I have visited but definitely have an open mind about every other sorority. I understand my opinions can change a lot as I go through the rush process. I know not to tell everyone at my school that I have a preference- that's one way to automatically get cut!! Good to know I should get a recommendation for all. If I can't find one for all, is it ok to have recommendations from people who are not related to greek life at all (employers etc)? Also is it better to get a recommendation from an alum or current member?
thank you sooo much hope this isn't too long-winded
