Recruitment as Transfer info

Is the recruitment contract binding when a student leaves a school and transfers to a school w/spring recruitment? I didn't accept the bid at my current school because I felt then that I would transfer and the sorority is not at the new school. I knew I would have to be an alumna, if the new school didn't have the same sorority.
Can I rush in the spring, if I decide to transfer>

Your other posts indicated that you were the mother of a PNM.

To answer your question, your MRABA does not apply at a new school and you can rush immediately.

What is it with all the perps/wannabes/trolls/socks/dishonest posters lately? Seriously don't get it. and a simple search would have answered the op's question.

oopsies.

I know the path to a healthy adulthood should not be limited to a comfy, cozy cul-de-sac, however, I would have preferred this recruitment experience for my DD in the spring. She has been very positive about this process, her small classes (bet. 18 - 34 students), her impressive instructors & her darling suitemates. Having no sorority experience myself, I hope she can nurture these new relationships as well as those w/her PNSisters. Can you tell she's my first one in college?
I appreciate the good wishes sent to the girls & moms.

Hi all
Today is preference day.
My DD had a rough beginning & she was 'bummed'. Her wonderful Pi Chi shared that a bumpy beginning can often be easier to deal w/than the highs & lows that many would experience. She was right. My daughter said many girls either broke down or they were fuming about their schedules at the next round. Others were quiet.
I hope the girls believe what we heard at parent orientation - trust the process.

I have a ? about my 2nd daughter who will be applying to USC this fall. Should we start hitting the pavement for rec letters this spring, if she decides to attend
? My current USC daughter had 2, and I was told she should have had one for every house. "It is common knowledge that SEC schools have highly competitive recruitments." Oh well...

Best wishes to all!

You cannot rush anything. You are a 30 or 40 something mother of 2 daughters. Your daughter has been at University of S Carolina for less than a month! She plans to transfer already?

And when are you people going to remember? We can't expect AZTheta to carry all of the qfp load.
