Is there a "comprehensive" list of Va schools that require recs? My school is not one of the big schools like RC, W&M, or UVA, which I know require recs.

I went to George Mason - PM me on here or IM me at SthrnZeta if I can help you Also, PM Gusteau, he's a current student at George Mason so he would have some more current info since I graduated in 2004. Good luck!

I'm actually headed to Virginia Commonwealth University in the fall. If it's not appropriate for me to reveal this, let me know!

I'm transferring from a school where going greek is the be-all end-all and you'll never get a bid if you don't have recs. I was wondering if anyone had any experience at all with VCU... and if so, would you be willing to help me?

Hi. I am rushing for the second time at FSU. I got a bid last year but declined it, it happened to be the one house I felt was the least fitting for me throughout rush. I am quite nervous to rush again this year, though I found out AFTER rush that my mother was President of her sorority, which happens to be at FSU. Why she did not inform me of this previously, I do not know. I don't know all too many people at FSU still, and have known I want to participate in a sorority. All of my closest friends from high school are in sororities at my rival school, UF. I do not know why I was dropped from all the other sororities, I like to believe it was just not meant to be. But through all of this, I am quite nervous about rush again because I want it so much and know that being a sophomore rushing at FSU is not as promising as being a freshman. I joined GC in hope of finding reassurance or advice for Fall 2010 Recruitment.

Even if your mom hasn't so much as read her sorority's magazine since she graduated, you'd think this would come up when you announced that you were going to rush.

i've seen it mentioned on here more than once, that mom "forgot" to tell her daughter that she was a member of xyz. maybe mom did not want daughter to get involved with greek life, but was taking a more passive approach.

Hello:

My name is TrueStar and I plan on rushing this fall at a California university. I've made some posts here before because I'm a non-traditional student, but so is the school. This is the first school I've attended that has a Greek Life, otherwise I would have tried before.

I'm going in knowing that there are points against me, but I have a great GPA and have been getting involved in my own volunteer work since moving to California. I think it's better than not trying at all.
