Did being a transfer hurt my chances at getting a bid?
I recently rushed Sig Ep at my college, and I am a transfer sophomore in his first semester at this school. I went to all the rush events and then was invited to the invite-only formal dinner, after which members voted on potentials. I didn't get picked, and I am both heartbroken and furious, as I went to every event, tried to talk to nearly all the members, and this was my chance to get a crew in college. Maybe I am taking it a little personally, but was it that the fact I'm a transfer killed me? I am thinking that because the other potentials were all except one(who was a senior) my year, and many of the brothers were sophomores too who went to school with these guys last year. I mean it seemed that I got along well with the brothers, everyone acknowledged me on campus when I walked by, seemed to be on good terms with everyone. I dont' know what went wrong, if my height hurt my, I'm 5'2''. But I lean toward the fact I wasn't really known until rush to any of thse kids because I'm a transfer. Is that why I didn't get a bid?
