I'm a freshman at the University of Central Missouri. I'm very interested in greek life here. It's not as big a deal here like it is at a lot of universities, which is one of the reasons I like it so much. I'm from a city four hours away from this school and came not knowing anyone. I went through formal fall recruitment and had a blast. I got to know the chapters and girls, and got a good idea of what there was to offer. During formal recruitment, I got invited back to 3 chapters but only was invited back to one chapter on preference day. After preference day I decided to drop out of formal recruitment. It wasn't because I didn't get my first choice, but the chapter I received the preference invitation from I just didn't click with. The girls were very very sweet and I felt terrible for not pledging, but I just couldn't join if I wasn't 100% sure. I gave all the sororities equal chances and I just didn't click with all of them. I have a 3.04 GPA from last semester and had a 2.79 from high school. I was very very involved in activities at my high school. At college I'm very shy and am just starting to dip my toes in the activities here.
This week is spring informal recruitment, and I'm rushing again. I visited my top choice each night. Both nights so far were (to me) very successful, there were hardly any awkward moments in conversation and all the girls I talked to I had a lot in common with. I truly could see myself being a great member of this chapter. The last night of spring recruitment would have been tonight, but due to about 9 inches of snow, the party was canceled. The rescheduled date for the party hasn't been posted. I was just hoping for some advice to help my chances of getting a bid and leaving the beast impression possible? I have a personal connection with this chapters philanthropy and would love to get to help with it, thats one of the biggest reasons they are my top choice. Thanks in advance
