Here are things I find myself repeating to my daughter and her friends.

Have fun. It is a new experience. Everyone is in the same boat as you. Hardly anyone has a perfect recruitment. If you are released it doesn't mean something is wrong with you, your ugly or not dressed right. It is a numbers game and women are released by very small margins. Have fun.

When you get your invite list you can be sad that your favorite released you. Be sad for a moment then move on and treat the Chapters that have invited you back as the only Chapters on campus. You can not go back and can not change your invitation list so you have to move forward.

Don't quit no matter what. Stick it out to the end and go to all your preference parties. If you get through the whole process and don't like it you are under no obligation to sign a bid card. Also, there has been more then one girl who has changed her mind after Preference.

Take really good notes. You will need them for ranking and making your final decision. Think about the way the Chapters make you feel.
