fresman rushing?

[emmilaya]

so i'm only a high school junior, but with the quickly approaching choices about my future i have been thinking a lot about greek life. i think i would love sorority life. i have been looking around the site, read some of the old threads, and checked out the web pages of the sororities at my first choice college (OU) and i only have a few questions and please dont jump down my throat if they have been asked but i did my best to try and avoid that. so for starters what are your opinions of pledging freshman year, fall or spring semester? i'm not so much worried about timie management, because i juggle a lot now with no problems, but i wanted to find out your opinions about it. second question, i'm confused as to housing. If you wanna live in the house, how do you go about doing that? because dont you have to sign a contract with the college if your going to stay in the dorm, and you wont know if you are going to get accepted into a sorority until after you have signed the contract? the whole thing confuses me lol. could someone clarify?
