Recruitment at Texas A&M?

[KSUViolet06]

I would think that recs are important at A&M, particularly for a sophomore. It's an opportunity to let the chapters know who you are, so it can't hurt.

Every sorority is going to have a different minimum GPA cut off. Most if not all are going to be looking for PNMs to be above that. Also be aware that if you fall below a chapter's min. GPA, you'll most likely be released by that chapter during the process.

As far as the process itself, A&M has a website that with all that info:

There's a page there about a Panhellenic block party in April which is designed to help girls meet sorority women. I would suggest attending that.

It appears that according to the website, there is some informal spring recruitment that goes on, but the page is under construction. Also, be aware that not every sorority is typically going to do spring recruitment. Fall recruitment gives you the chance to meet ALL the groups.

Potential New Member = a girl who is going through recruitment (rush).

This thread is a good starting point for advice and it has an entire section devoted to recs.

Plenty of girls without Greek family members and such have managed to secure recs for the chapters at their schools, so it can be done, it just takes work.
