If you intentionally single preferenced and did not receive a bid, you would be eligible to attend recruitment events for Delta Zeta.

Consider this:

Do I want to be Greek or just a member of XYZ?

Is it more important to find sisterhood or to wear XYZ's letters on my chest.

Am I looking for a lifelong, supportive network that will help me advance myself is academics, philanthropy and my career or do I just want to say "I'm an XYZ".

There is no guarantee that you would become a member of Delta Zeta. Your chances of becoming a member of a sorority would be greater through formal rush (sheer number of choices).

I'm not trying to be cruel, but you seem to be very focused on Delta Zeta's colonization. UF Recruitment is very competitive, and there will be a lot of PNMs that do not advance to a preference round and may be contacted by Delta Zeta. If you go into Recruitment thinking that you will always have a second chance at DZ, you are going into the situation with the wrong attitude.

You need to work hard at showing the existing chapters that you would be an asset to their chapter. You need to evaluate the existing chapters to see if their sisterhood is something in which you want to take part. If, at the end of the week you truly can't see yourself at home in any of the existing chapters, you can then reevaluate the situation and possibly withdraw from Recruitment, thereby leaving yourself available to the possibility of interviewing with Delta Zeta or attending an Informal Recruitment in the Spring.
