Correct me if I'm wrong, but like Barbie's Rush said, if you have been to a CC for a year, they won't even really look at your HS record much. At least, if I were rushing you I would focus more on college related questions to ask you about. Also if you simply said you'd be to CC for a year I would not realize/would not think to ask if you'd been to another university first. The question would not even occur to me. And going to a CC for a year or two is becoming increasingly common for financial reasons so honestly, if it were me, I would not think twice about your situation. I would likely just ask you what drew you to the university, what you were studying, what were your goals, etc.

Remember, on the other side of recruitment we are just as nervous as you a lot of the time (well, not so much nervous, but it was called rush for a reason). If I were recruiting you, I would really be focusing on where you were going in school/life than anything. However if you have community service/activities in the past that you'd like to highlight, do so. If you're comfortable, mentioning that you are involved in community service/philanthropy work related to eating disorder awareness, I would (personally) be impressed by that. But that is only if you are comfortable sharing that, and totally up to you.

Just imagine you're in our shoes-- we're trying to see what kind of woman you are and to see if you'd fit in the chapter (which you are doing as well). It's kind of like a job interview-- highlight the positives and draw out the positives in any negative. You are more than your past, and I would like to personally say that I am happy that you got the help that you needed. As a person who used to have an eating disorder, I know that I have received a lot of help and support from my sisters in dealing with it and its aftereffects. Many women, Greek and non-Greek, have had eating disorders so know that even if you don't go Greek that you can find support. Best of luck with recruitment and in your life.
