Auburn sorority recruitment

There are 16 panhellenic sororities. I can tell you that the most popular ones are VERY VERY competitive. Auburn's recruitment usually starts with 1200 girls and only about 50 or so are kept for each sorority (that's l/2 of what they start with).

Yes, it is not uncommon for girls to quit their sorority before initiation (which is a must if you want to get into a different one) or they do not accept the bid. Accepting the bid and going through initiation make it nearly impossible to go through COB.

The sororities base their cuts on what the prospect can do for their group, their standing in their own community prior to coming to Auburn, what they are already involved in at Auburn (cheerleader, dancer, etc.), and how they do at Ice Water Teas. How is the girls personality and how does it mesh with the group?

Yes, COB is only for the sororities with openings (and there are always some openings in your lower echilon sororities).

Some are better than others (locally), but I won't go into that.

Um, wouldn't going through initiation make it COMPLETELY impossible to go through COB?

Um, yes.

Pardon the eternal optimist in me.
