Being a legacy

What type of privileges do you get if you're a legacy? Or does it vary from sorority to sorority? And I know there are stereotypes such as the partying sorority and so on but do the stereotypes change depending on the college?

If you're a legacy, go ask your family member. You don't get privileges. You may get "courtesies" but those aren't guaranteed.

As far as stereotypes go, you're wasting your time if you pay attention to any of them.

You'll no doubt find through the search feature that this topic has been well covered, but generally it can vary from campus to campus. I can't speak for other GLOs, but for SAE at least it's still ultimately up to the chapter in question whether or not to extend a bid. Being a legacy will generally guarantee that the chapter at least considers you, out of respect for the alumnus/alumni to whom you're related, but that's as far as any guarantee goes. You have to earn a bid on your own merits.

ETA: What OTW said.
