I dropped out of rush my freshman year, but still really thought I belonged in Sigma. I had alot of friends in the chapter and really fell in love with it. My sophomore year, I rushed again with (a closed mind yes, but with only 3 chapters on campus I knew which one was right for me!) and my heart set on Sigma. I remember the first night of formal I walked into the Sigma room and it felt soooo right. I knew I would finally make it through rush week. Well, when invites went out I was shocked to see that Sigma was the only sorority to cut me!!!!! I was devestated. I dropped out of rush right then and was really depressed about it the rest of the week. Then, informal rolled around and Sigma's started inviting me to thier events. I went to their Christmas party and the full week of informal rush. It was only then, on my third try, that I finally found a home. Just because you're cut once doesn't mean you'll always be cut. HOWEVER, it was nerve racking, it was stressful, it was hard. Just be prepared for that. I have to say though, the benefits of my third time in the pool far outweighed the stress. And now i love my sisters more than anything in the world. Good luck, it's possible, because I've done it.
