I totally understand. The only problem is that I don't know anyone else who is rushing/has rushed/has been in a sorority so I don't know whether or not recs are a big deal on my camus or not...

Are you an AZ Wildcat? A rec would be a BIG help if you want one of their top houses.

Recs = Good Idea
Contact the local Alumnae Panhellenic (list can be found at www.npcwomen.org) and they should be able to help you.

I've contacted the alumnae panhellenic asking for contact info like you suggested, but my fear is that I will not have time to get recs (rush is the 12th-18th). I feel like a slacker, but I really only found out about recs when I found this forum (approx. 3 days ago!). So now I am very nervous about not having recs...

I just email the recruitment president and she said that I don't need recs, and that if they are required then the chapter will have to get them themselves. I am still waiting to hear back from the alumnae panhellenic, I am still going to try and get some recs, but I feel alot better now that I know they aren't required. Thank you everyone!

Think about it this way: If the sorority is trying to decide between you and another girl, and everything else between the two of you is equal (gpa, activities, the sisters that rushed both of you both liked you really well) but the other girl already has a rec, and they would have to hunt one down on you, which one do you think they're going to go with?
They may not be absolutely mandatory, but they do help.

Wow!!
I've already gotten a very nice handwritten (!) thank you note for writing a rec!

How soon is too soon to ask about recs? One of my teachers told me she'd get one for me and I didn't even ask her.
