Does this mean there are 11 chapters at her school, or she is only considering 11 of X number of chapters? I thought this was worded kind of strangely
There are more than 11, but only 11 NPC sororities. The other groups do not participate during formal rush.

One other neat thing about this girl is that she truly has no preconceived notions before going into rush. Despite the fact that she has a somewhat distant family member who is a recent alum of the school, she doesn't really know that much about greek life. No one in her immediate family has ever been involved. She is going into it for friendship and sisterhood, not status or elitism, so it should be a really wide open rush experience.

I am excited to hear of her impressions of rush. It is pretty intimidating (and impressive) when the chapters come rushing out singing and shouting! I've tried to prepare her, but as we all know, no amount of talking about it compares to the reality!

Good luck from one Belle to another!

I particularly like this statement:

Because of this, she is already positioned to succeed, ahead of countless others going through.
