I'm not a typical sorority girl like the ones at UF. I'm not a beauty queen, more like very plain looking and pretty shy and reserved. One of my best friends from HS who graduated last year is in a sorority at UF, but we're total opposites. She was 6th in our class, a cheerleader, extremely outgoing, the type of girl everyone loves. She encouraged me to rush which is why I signed up in the first place but I'm having doubts. Some other friends told me a lot of girls get cut from every house but one or two during the first round.
Should I still go through recruitment? I've had self esteem issues about my appearance since middle school (I was bullied for a couple of years and haven't gotten over it completely) and getting cut from every house would just really, really hurt.
Is there room in a sorority for someone who is quiet? Even if I do get in, won't I just be the girl that no one knows about?
Sorry, I don't really have a ton of issues, but I'm not sure if through recruitment or not. If I was going to a different school with a smaller Greek system like up north I definitely would.

I was pretty quiet and shy when I went through rush as well and I got cut from most of teh groups on campus after teh first round. BUT, I really didn't care because there was NO way I would have fit in with any of them anyway.
Go to the first round of parties and see what the groups are like. You just might find one that's fits you perfectly.
But as has been said, I would use it as an opportunity to try to be more outgoing.
Good Luck..........
