i was a cheerleader, too
Like everyone else has said, having been a cheerleader won't hurt you during rush, as long as you present yourself well at college and during sorority rush. Plenty of sorority girls, myself included, were once cheerleaders. That said, I don't think you should count on cheering to HELP you in rush any more than soccer or field hockey or anything else would help. I know at some high schools, the cheerleaders are considered "popular" or "the prettiest" or whatever you want to say. College girls really don't care what people thought of you in high school (unless of course you go to a college with tons of people form your h.s.)... they'll make their own judgments about you. So I don't think you should count on the "coolness" factor to help you any in sorority rush. Cheerleading is just seen as another extracurricular.
