Informal rush as a senior?

[lilpadfoot]

I don't mean to keep pestering and asking a lot of questions, and I may be jumping ahead of myself a little, but I was wondering what sort of chances I'd have rushing as a senior? I just went through formal recruitment and got cut before preference and ended up being one of two girls who didn't get a bid at all. I don't believe my school is very competitive, it's very small and only has three sororities whose total is 50 each.

I'm waiting to hear back from the Greek Advisor tomorrow because my roommate and I were very upset today after finding out we were the only two who went bidless besides the girl who declined her bid and I'll be asking if there are any openings for COB, but I have a feeling there aren't any. The eight other girls who got cut before preference all got snap bids.

I'm also concerned that if I were to successfully rush in the fall, that there would not be much time to have a full experience in a sorority. I don't want to sound petty or anything, I do realize that I should have tried earlier, but it wasn't until last semester that someone showed me what being Greek did for him. It's a sort of long story and very personal, but it led to me wanting this very much.

Are there any sorority members out there that successfully rushed as a senior and would like to share any advice?
