congrats on rushing!!!! and on being the first in your family to attempt college, that's so inspiring you should expect a lot of fun from recruitment, it's a great way to meet all kinds of people and get involved...a lot of girls buy lots of clothes and shoes and jewelry especially for sorority recruitment, but my advice is that, if you're going to buy new stuff, make sure that you'll actually wear it down the road...one of my friends went through recruitment last year, bought a ton of stuff and never wore some of it again...i would also definitely contact the sorority council leadership if there is one and get some more information about the chapters on your campus...they can also tell you more about the rush environment and what to expect every day during rush...GOOD LUCK!
