I would definitely suggest attending all 5 if you can. You don't want to limit yourself (especially as an upperclassman).

Honestly, just go to their events, and see what happens. If you see her, be polite and say hello. Yes, it may be awkward, but a potential awkward moment with one girl is no reason to avoid an entire sorority altogether. If it is just SO awkward that you can't handle it, you aren't obligated to go back, but it won't hurt to check them out. You may find that you like them.

Another thing that you may consider, how large are these chapters that you will be visiting? If there are 100 sisters, chances are there is going to be someone you know that maybe you don't get along with. Even if the chapters are smaller, still give all 5 a chance. The advice above is good advice to take into consideration.

Its a pretty small university and I want to say there'll be around 8,000 students this upcoming year, because of a rather big new freshman class, and about 65% of undergrad women are in sororities if that tells you anything. I'm not sure about actual numbers though but I would think abit less than 100 per house.

And thanks, that's what I was thinking because I don't want to directly rule out any of them before I visit but I didn't want to seem rude in that one house because of one person who I would be avoiding inconspicuously.

You weren't really specific about what happened... if it was minor or you just lost touch, I'd say it shouldn't matter.

If something crazy happened (like you stole her boyfriend or something) then I'd stay away from that situation

Nothing crazy, we just kind of went seperate ways and she stopped talking to me when I called/left her messages etc. I think it was something about spending more time with my boyfriend, *new* at the time, and other people and not her that made her kind of mad at me. I don't consider it too bad a thing anyway I just don't want her or the combination me/her to end up horribly awkward and irritated at events and such.
