I go to a small-medium sized southern school (Wake Forest), and we have deferred rush. Due to many circumstances last semester, Formal recruitment did not work out as I'd hoped.
Many (most) of my friends joined sororities, and I'd still like to be a part of my school's greek system. We have both fall (informal) rush and formal rush in the spring. I know that informal rush is a lot less, well, formal (duh) than formal recruitment, but I am also aware that there are fewer spots in each sorority, making it a much more competitive process.
I am faced with two options--fall recruitment and spring recruitment. I would rather do formal recruitment in the spring because I feel as if I would have a better chance at getting one of the houses I want in the Spring. I also would like to use this semester to meet more people and bring my GPA up a few points. However, I'm not sure on Wake's general opinion on sophomores rushing in the Spring. Does anyone know if this is looked down upon? Would I need more recs this year?
I'm a little embarassed to go through formal recruitment again--I know it sounds stupid, but rush was pretty difficult last spring and I just want some input on it before I decide either way.
Any advice from anyone would be much appreciated
Thank you so much!
