I'll give a little background about myself. I'm a junior at Alabama who is very much interested in DG and becoming a member of the new chapter. I'm a Greek virgin in the fact that I've never gone through recruitment before and i don't have any close family members who are in social Greek organizations (a few are in honors greek organizations) I've decided to sign up for a Delta Gamma interview because i know some girls who are members from other schools, and they've made me super excited and feel like DG is a good fit for me. I also love the idea of being apart of the shaping new traditions at Alabama that future sisters will love and enjoy.

I would love if anyone could give me advice on the interview and maybe explain more about what the re-colonization might be like. I was also wondering about how many bids they might give out ? Also will it hurt my chances because I'm going to be a junior? I would like to be as prepared as possible for the interview ect. Thanks

The number of bids really will depend on the interest level (how many PNMs register) and what average chapter size is at Bama. They generally aim for the colony to be similarly sized to the other chapters (or maybe a tad larger.) Above all, they're looking for quality women to begin their tradition at Bama.

Colonies generally take on a cross-section of class standings (including juniors and some seniors.) Obviously a colony cannot be all freshmen or sophs because they'd all graduate at the same time.
