Hello everyone! I am hoping to get a thread started in regards to my daughter, who is a Senior looking at schools. I am already part of the CC community, but since joining a sorority is a top priority, I thought sharing my story here would be best!
My DD is a Senior with a high GPA and ACT, 4-year cheerleader, and other activities including being an officer.
1) A strong greek system, would prefer that the sororities have houses
2) A large school that has many sports/activiitesj
3) A program in Biology (which is nearly everyone)
Financial assisstance is important. We would most likely be full-pay at state schools (we are from Michigan), with some financial aid assistance at private schools.
Her list includes: The University of SAM (my new name for it):Stanford, Alabama, and Michigan. She is also interested in Vanderbilt, WUSTL, and Duke for our privates, and a few in-state affordable options.
If she is going to Alabama (which is in her top 3) we know she needs recommendations for all groups on campus, which will be a major undertaking, so we are waiting a bit to see if she will be going to Alabama. The other schools do not require the recs like Alabama, but we will need some for some of the schools.
I would love to hear from all the sorority women out there with an opinion or advice for me! This year is turning out to be such an adventure! Thank you in advance!!!!
