I'm so sorry to hear that. It's hard to face rejection, but it seems that you have dealt with it very well. I was rejected from all of the sororities during rush. I was upset, and later mad, but I've got over it, because I'm a strong and determined person. Anyway, it takes time to get over it. Some girls get over their rejections very quickly others (like myself) take a long time. It took me a whole semester to get over it, because I wasn't really rejected for anything in my life and rejection was hard for me.

Take this rush as a learning experience. You will face rejection all of your life.

Be with your family for some support. Continue to be friends with your roommate and your neighbors. If you don't, jealousy will sprout ugly and will get worse.

Talk to other people for support. Like your RA (resident advisor) or a counselor or other people that are not Greek but support the Greek system. Please do realize that you're not alone when it comes to rejection.

Also, get your grades up, not just to try to get into the sororities, but also for grad school (if you plan to go), because as the work load gets harder for you, it would become difficult for you to improve your grades way above a 3.0. You have to compete with others that will have higher GPAs than you.

Try other organizations. You'll make just about the same amount of friends as you would in a sorority.

Think positive. It will be the only way to boost your self-esteem back to normal.
