Hmm, I thought I posted a reply yesterday, wonder why it didn't "take"?
Yes, A.S.K. offers bids to first-semester freshman. While we don't require rush guests to wait until they are 2nd semester freshman, many of my chapter's active members chose to wait until their 2nd semester, and in some cases, their sophomore year to rush.
I find that our most active and committed members are those who have a well-thought out plan for how to balance their committments, whether it's academics, greek life, leisure activities, hobbies, involvement etc, and it really has no bearing on when they rush. These are usually the young women who know their limits and know how to accomplish what they plan to accomplish, in spite of many hurdles.
