So Im kinda confused on COR, is it that you participate with all of the chapters that are eligable or is it focused on one house for each girl?

COB/CR/COR/Informal recruitment events are held as events individual to each sorority. To solicit your interest, contact the office of Greek Life (or if you have friends in the chapters, let your friends know of your interest). Sometimes some chapters hold open house events for anyone to come to COR. Likely each sorority holding these events will have your name on a list of unmatched women from formal recruitment. It is up to them if they will invite you to an event. You can go to events for as many sororities as are invited to, or decline invitations that you are not interested in.

You only go to the COR events for the chapters that YOU want to. If you want to go to Beta Kappa Upsilon and Sigma Rho Alpha, those are the events you watch for. Usually sororities advertise via fliers, school newspaper ads, chalk on the sidewalk...etc...

You may get phone calls from the recruitment chariperson from chapters or see signs posted around campus. You can also call the greek life office and ask them when COR will be taking place and who will be participating. They may not have the information until a couple days after bid day.

From the University of Kentucky Panhellenic Association

Continuous Open Recruitment (COR) - (Formally called COB)

"Open Recruitment begins after the conclusion of Sorority Membership Recruitment Week and continues throughout the academic year. Open Recruitment is recommended for anyone who chooses not to participate in Membership Recruitment Week or did not receive a bid during the week. It offers women the opportunity to participate in sorority life and join a sorority through an informal process. Membership recruitment activities might include pizza parties, bowling outings and TV nights. Participating sororities will contact you by phone, letter, or personal visit to invite you to attend their membership activities.

You can register for COR in 575 Patterson Office Tower or by clicking here."

For more information: 859.257.3151

And for what it is worth, if you do consider COR, in my humble and completely unbiased opinion, all chapters at UK are great.

Best of luck with whatever you decide.

I joined through COB after I had to drop out of rush, and I thought it was really great-you know that they are all really interested in YOU!
