I'm not a member of an NPC sorority (I'm a sister in a Latina sorority), but since I was chapter president I got to know many NPC members through "system-wide" activities. I believe UCLA has 11 or 12 NPC organizations and all have houses right across from campus. Kappa Delta, Kappa Alpha Theta, and Kappa Kappa Gamma are all represented. UCLA has a very organized, large-scale Fall Recruitment, and I'm confident our NPC sisters on this board can give you more information on what to expect from "rush."
If you are interested in learning more about joining a traditionally Latina, African American or Asian sorority, the process is quite different. Check out the various related threads on this board, as my sisters in greekdom have posted some valuable information recently.
I found UCLA to be a challenging and exciting place to spend my undergraduate years, and joining my sorority made it even better! One thing to keep in mind--you don't HAVE to join an organization right away. The sororities at UCLA have been around for decades, and they aren't going anywhere. Since UCLA is academically demanding (and on the quarter-system), make sure you are doing well in your classes before committing to a pledge/new member program and life as an active.
If you have any questions, please post them, and best wishes to you!
Go Bruins!...can I get an 8-CLAP in here??!!!!
