University of Texas recruitment question
Hi. I am wondering if I should try to discourage my daughter from attending UT next fall. I have read the horror stories about how difficult it is to receive a bid at UT. My daughter is a great girl, she has great grades, good activities, and she is a legacy to my sorority but I did not attend UT. I mean, I am her mother, so I think she’s great, but I’m sure that every other mother with a daughter rushing at UT feels the same way.
Also, we live far from UT and there aren’t many girls from our geographical region that attend UT. My daughter's HS isn't large or well-known. She did not attend summer camp anywhere. She doesn’t really know many girls that attend UT right now. .
I can still remember when I went through rush and there was a girl in my group that didn’t get a bid. It was horrible! I feel like if she went to any of the other universities she’s interested in, she’d receive a bid without any problems. It is really important to her to become a sorority member. She’s grown up with all of my wonderful memories, and she has friends active in sororities at other universities…
I guess if there was a problem, she could rush as a sophomore, but then again, I don’t know how sophomores fare in rush at UT…Any suggestions? Also I was wondering what is a COB?
